suppose i will be lucky if it turns out as good as it looks in photos.but seller says the sportline came with a differant suspension set up to other gti cabs is this correct.
Thanks
Don't think so. They came with 15" BBS wheels, I think, in addition to the interior trim differences.

To define a 'sportline' you want bbs alloys with tyres should be 185-55 tyres, should have a fully functional MFA, sportline stickers.
Interior should be recaro. Red wing mirrors ,interior red needles on speedo ect (probably one of the hardest things to copy successfully) tinted green glass black power hood, Mohair casett player as standard probably wont lol
HTH
What year is the sportline as well?? thats a massive give away

Just to set the record straight I never mentioned at any point the car had different suspension. If you read the adds all I said was that up some point I think the suspension had been replaced and by that I meant with original equipment, just ask!!
If you have problems with the description let me know but as far as I am concerned it's as described and in the pictures, apart from a couple of window chips - be real it's 16 years old and has done 129000 and is completely original.
If your looking to buy a mint example of the Sportline don't expect to pay ?2000 which in my book for this car is a good deal and certainly don't start having a go when I don't accept ?1200!
Sorry I just seem to be having a whinge today but it really annoyed me when I saw this post.
If you are expecting to get a car up to show standard you'll have to pay regardless of the starting car, and if you want to spend that sort of money look elsewhere. Just because you'll have to spend money to get it up to factory show standard don't expect me to take that off what is already a good price…

I guess everyone is trying it on at the moment with the economy the way it is.

I was always upfront when he called sending loads of pictures, even to the point when they came to view they all agreed that the car was in great condition for it?s age!
To then start having ago and offering ?1200. Obviously didn't know what he was looking at.

TBH a lot of this is caused by there being no price guide. So people pluck a figure out of the air, for prices, and then a lot of people get emotive. Us being eternal optimists, buyers tend to go low and sellers go high, with their guess. If you look around at roughly equivalent cars (albeit not Mk1 Golfs) the haze becomes clearer.
TBH the price guide rarely comes into play as people still value there cars as they see fit( the v-reg series one 1.6 currently for sale at 6k),it seems to be a vw thing to always want a bargain :dontknow:
Other popualr classics hold there money far better, you only have to look at mini`s to see they fetch better money overall.
To comment on the sportline prices and having just sold one and looked at many i would say i`ve seen sheds for 1500 and mint examples up for 6k plus.
2.5k - 3k should get you a good example but i`d say that about mk1 gti`s as well… :dontknow: only my humble opinion
