Diesel Engined Mk1s?
the car is advertised as a 1.6 diesel, apparently the same engine as fitted to the caddy, did these ever come as standard in a mk1 tin top?

Many were imported by service personnel and were different specs, 3-drs, autos and GLs which won't be listed.
I think some insurance companies also have a 20 year cut off so all Mk1s won't be listed. :dontknow:
Also from memory when I had a 1980 Jetta LD the insurance group is very high for such a low powered vehicle……

The trouble with doing nothing is that you never know when you are finished.

If its converted/modified petrol the insurance company will add another 0 to the quote.

what difference would it make what it said on the logbook mate? suppose if its still down as a 1.5 or whatever it'd be fine….
could it not have just had the 5 speed box swapped out?

i have called the guy about twenty times between 8 last night and now, and he hasnt answered the phone at all, needless to say i'm rather disappointed, and to be truthful, a bit upset.
This is my first time buying a VW, let alone a mk1, but i've wanted one for as long as i can remember, and now i have a bit of cash burning a hole in my pocket, every single one seems to be hundreds of miles away, or shit like this happens!
