Looks like a Zender grille. An accessory from the early 80's. Looks a nice car !

Its either a Zender Grill (should have a marking to say so) or its one of Toyfun (spelling?) aftermarket ones.

Yep, I would say it's a Zender grill too.

How the hell does he get out of that space!!! The car behind is nearly in his boot.

Looking closely, the car also has Jetta wings on it, I think.

Yeah I was thinking Kamie,

And yes the front wings are Mk1 Jetta for some reason.

That's a Zender kit on the French car. The Kamei X1 grille is a lot less subtle (if that's the right word when describing 80's body kits !) The lights are more 'inset' and the grille area is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. They look more like Jetta wings because the grille 'squares off' the front so much. Zender did a grille for the Jetta and it kept the indicators in the corners of the wings as per standard.

not sure on european models, over here a gls wolud make it a 1979-82 1.6 carb, looks like the early head rests shame i can't make out the dash. dash so 79-81.
as for price if anyone has seen "the garage" jock campbell had a mk1 cabbie in he says a car like this in spain is worth a few hundred euro! hope thats of any help.

Sounds a bit steep to be honest. If its running and legal then yes thats maybe a fair price but if its not then just say no or haggle!
