yes please. I'll take 2.

Rode past a red VX220 this morning, really handsome IRL, doesn't come across in pics IMO

I was thinking the other day that they'd aged fairly well.

There is one that looks like it's straight outta Mad Max commuting down Portsmouth Road in Surrey. Hip Hop Slave Car.

Superb from Audi -

Just been for a ride in my sisters boyfriend 400bhp Volvo 940 setup for drifting. I think I might need one myself.

Long wheel base cars are nice to control the over steer. Learn to balance the car under power.

Which pellet thought that plastic on the front bumper looked good?

Anyone want an exquisite MkII?

Can't keep a German marque down. :o)

Please!

Seriously?

Ha! Probably not - though I used to own a Mk2 Driver and my parent's had a lovely Mk2 GTi 16v and a load of Mk1 GTis and ragtops. What are you getting rid of?

Not me, a pal.

Gti? Would he swap for a motorbike?

Nope. He wants rid because it just doesn't get used.

I'd have it, but storage is an issue at the mo. I'm trying to sort out a 40ft shipping container as a storage unit because my lock-up's getting a bit close.

Do you know what sorta price he'd like? Any other details? My folks could be in the market for it.

it is lovely

but i am going to kick you in the balls for 'exquisite'

Ha!

It is exquisite though.

@dirkbang - He wants three and a half large, but he's meticulous with the maintenance.

Would love a 1000bhp MkII Golf with a sequential gearbox, totally standard from the outside

Might be a bit rich for my tastes - but I could pass it along. Does he have pics and deets?

You on farcebook?
