Hey Guys,
I finally took the plunge and purchase what I think is a really good second hand VW Golf MK2 GTI 8V.
I was sick of my Impreza and it was time for a change.
I found this baby on the old Gumtree. It looks to be in good condition and had low Kms (77km). It was an Automatic and when I read sunroof it was a no brainer. (Never had a car with a sunroof before).
I managed to haggle the guy down a little bit and made sure it had a basic service before I drove it back to Sydney as it was located in Fyshwick ACT and had been in storage for some time. I purchase it from a place called Beetle Exchange and apparently this had been sitting for sale for some time and they where using it as a little run around. I came with the log books and original sale
and delivery documents.
There are some minor scratches and marks and only a couple of small rust bubbles under the front wipers. Some of the plastics on the outside had come loose but I have now reattached them.
In the engine, I have found that the radiator fan is not spinning as freely as I would have liked and after meeting with Brian from GTI Imports, I have managed to get a new fan will try to install it when I have a chance.
Tell me what you guys think.
