cant wait :twisted:
One or two probs with it, hard clutch. chap said that it has always been like that, high too. :dontknow:
Buzin inside the car. he says that the buzz that comes on is the oil pressure switch. For some reason there are about 6 oil pessure switches for MK1 golfs, so my machanic thinks that I've got the wrong one in hence the buzzing. :dontknow: I just
hit the dash board and it stops it not the best solution!!!
good to haggle with :wink:
My mk2 is an early 84 gti kjet. sold the engine and box tho, been lowered. Could I used the brakes or anything?

How much should I be asking off the asking price?

If bashing on the dash stops the buzzer it sounds like a faulty circuit board on the clocks. Although it is unlikely to be the oil pump, knock the money off for a new one as worst case and check you have decent pressure.
You can fit the brakes from the Mk2, but the only thing worth uprating is the vented discs. As they are cheap anyway from GSF, why fit used ones? If you upgrade, make sure you get the thinner GTi pads too.
I would ask for ?100 off, but I would not buy it without the MOT first.

Be sure that the bolts that came with the steel wheels are long enough to safely hold on the alloys, as alloys are thicker, and the bolts need to be a bit longer.
How to tell:
The short, steel-only bolts have a smooth top on the hex-head, with only the part no.
The longer, for-alloys bolts have raised castellations (like battlements on a castle) around the edge of the hex-head.
If you need the longer ones, any breaker will have them on a Mk2 Golf or Polo.
PS: If you ever put a steel rim back on the rear drums (spare wheel?), don't use the long bolts, as they can foul (and destroy) the brake-shoe assembly!
