    I think buying it back and cleaning it up would be a top idea!

    GTD's are few and far between from what I know, especially in Australia!

    Speaking of which, where abouts are you from??

    Welcome to the forum.

    Hey mate, Welcome. The GTD's were never sold out here and are extremely rare.

    Get it back and fix 'er up! There's a few guys on here that would be cheering to see a GTD fixed up and rolling on Aussie roads.

    hi mate, welcome!

    as said, it would be nice to see a real life GTD in australia - and here you have one. if you're interested in more performance, check out our own diesels section, and this forum:

    www.vwdiesel.net

    both ofrums are very usefull. vwdiesel.net is pretty much the worl repository for vw diesel tuning knowledge, definately worth checking out and look in the FAQ section first.

    welcome another old diesel driver!

    hi mate.. great to see a GTD owner on the forum.

    I assumed there were none in Australia.

    Get that old diesel back!

    cheers
