              Being the wee bitty diesel that it is, makes it soo out of the ordinary and unique!
              Im happy to drive my 2Ltr Petrol Golf aswell a diesel like yours because their unique to drive and own!

              Looking forwards to piccy's and updates!

                if it's running well and in good condition, I'd keep it diesel. They're a hoot to own (for what they are)
