I'm currently sorting out what i should do with my mk1 golf or plan to do. I'm wondering whether to eventually upgrade the 1.6 motor since its been around and replace it with a similar or larger like the 1.8 or just keep it. Also the carbuerettor looks close to being on the way out and need suggestions on where to head there.
Also i need to find a good upholster as the vinyl seats have cracked in a few places but i dont want replace them as they are mostly intact.
I've also need some help with some other issues. currently when i drive in the high rev range, the bracket or such under the engine or car rattles, and quite noticeable as it can be heard inside. So i try to drive with out going through the whole rev range to try an avoid this as i dont want to do any damage. Is this something that should be checked. Also since the suspension in my car isn't what it used to be, the boot lid and lock seem to take a hammering and bang up and down, no an impressive feature, so is this common or do i need a new lock and where from.
Finally the rear light assemby and backing is falling apart and sometimes when I brake to hard the indicators stop working from the lights falling out of the sockets, which is not a good idea when changing lanes, or turning.
Even though i got these proble.. I mean set backs, i still love driving her everyday, definitely the coolest car on the road, unless I see another mk1 which I've only spotted two. I'd like to know or see more that are out there.
Thanks
