After searching for a while for a 2 door mk1 i eventually gave up and found a 4 door which looked decent being sold by a member here. It was last registered about 7 years ago so a few things need doing before re registering it. My current plans are re registering it and using it as a daily.
Its currently running a 1.8 with a 45 weber, 020 5 speed gearbox and upgraded gti brakes.
Rust wise its not too bad. Major areas are under the rear bumper, on top of the rain panel under the bonnet and on the windshield pillar.
Ive just done the basic things needed to get it running right, oil, plugs, coolant, brake fluid etc. Im just waiting on some parts from overseas like the cambelt and a few other things.
The interior is pritty good, its got a later model dash which has no cracks and the carpet has no major stains or tears. I might look at putting later model from seats in the future.
