Look for a typ85 model, the have nicer interior, big bumpers, raised spoiler and smoked rear lights, Pretty hard to find really tidy ones now, and do not buy an auto

Benni.B

nah thats not a problem never have driven an auto never will, but how hard are these to find because the sooner the beter really right now were driving a 1994 toyota celica and its just not a very good car at all. so need a replacement desperatly and ive heard that theres no more reliable car than a audi or vw.

Cheers.

i think that yellow one looks all good for the money.would look wicked on black wheels.
just wait for interior and trim to come along,it always does.

You would struggle to find one that has done less than 200k km, rust can be a serious, difficult to detect problem, and parts are becoming ever harder to find ... speaking as an owner who had thoroughly enjoyed using one as the daily driver over the past 13 years!

vag_nutter

Out of the last 10 coupes that dad has had the only rust in a couple of them was on the lower left corner of the a pillar and around the door hinges, allot of them have done high ks but you get the odd one thats hasnt done much, the k's arent really an issue wuth these cars, the engine and gearbox are bullet proof. There are alot of parts that are nla so try and find a mint one

GTI's

I know where a nice black one has been sitting in a shed for 3 years.
I'll leave a note on it asking if it's for sale.

Benni.B

thanks gti's that would be great,and even if these parts are hard to find i dont mind putting in the effort to restore a car especially if its giong to make the car last another lifetime.
