turbtechnics how long have you had your mk1tt.I looked at a red mk1tt about 10years ago it was red like yours if i remember it was at a garage in exeter swains i think.I was put off it had glass roof even though price was good . mark
DA DA - but more than 10 years ago if its the same car Mark. But yes mine came from "Swains Family car Centre" in Exeter. And you think the price was good when you looked at it - you wouldn't believe what they took for it
And put off by the Glass sunroof .. .come on - its a TT converted car - bugger the fact it has a glass roof jobby.
Should have snapped it up mate when you had the chance :wink: I haven;t regretted doing it, although I do miss the metal sunny in my original 1.6 GTI :cry: but hey small price to pay for a rare car imo, but I've had mine for more than 10 years so they might have had two !!!??!

For a start it doesn't run. It had been raced and now refuses to run. He says he will have this fixed. He wants at least ?3k for it :? Its had a cheapo respray in bmw artic silver, (I dont even think they removed the arches 8O ) rust bubbles at the rear of the roof, real untidy engine bay, lowered, interior ok but not mint, naff stereo and speakers in the parcel shelf. Overall it just said keep away….
If I wanted a car to tidy up I would offer him ?2500. I dont. I know its a rare car but I would rather spend the same and get a tidy standard car.
I'm going to shop about for a mint gti maybe campaign.
Guess I'll have to keep looking… wortha try.

Bad Vibes Kins - if you hadn;t have looked you would have been gutte dif it was a tidy one.
So it doesn't run - wonder if its gone low compression !!
Unitdy Engine Bay - all TT's look untidy when they have no chrome on the metal pipes - they go all rusty and crappy
Keep looking mate - you never know what might turn up :wink:
If I hear of any worth looking at I'l lgive you a shout if you like :wink:
