Looking to purchase a GTI and need genuine comments on queries.
thank you have seen a lot of nice clippers but like you say the demand for a GTI when it comes to selling it if i ever have to will be higher.
my budget is £2500, i would prefer a GTI BLACK OR WHITE, as original as possible, not adverse to some work.
can travel around 150 miles from Dorset………..
many thanks
Jenny

richyhill thank you.
I have now decided on my wish list so i think its going to take a little bit longer to find one but here it is:
GOLF GTI MK 1 1990 ON WARDS
CONVERTIBLE
PREFERABLY BLACK
UNDER 115K MILES
MANUAL
150 MILES OR LESS FROM DORSET
AS ORIGINAL AS POSSIBLE
hmmmmmmm i think that is it, I find a gem but it had been in an accident some time back and whoever did the work on it all across the passenger side ruined it and so now the doors did not shut properly.
shame.
the search continues.
Thank you again for everyone's help.

The white cabby next to it is the one that I got for my girlfriend a few months ago off ebay we won it for £597 it had been stored for 7 years. It's only done 69k.
I've given it a full service plus timing belt sorted a wiring on the front sidelight then got it mot'd.

Cheers I am a little confused are you saying that the white car is also for sale?
The grey one was being sold by a lady and you were going to see,if I am correct if you had her details? But you were not too sure?
