Ok, Time to sell

Ive had for 18 months and have put an awful lot of blood sweat & tears in. I basically picked it up as a shed 18 months ago and I brought it back to life.

8v 90 spec big bumper Gti with power steering
1.6 GTD Turbo Diesel (water cooled Turbo & Intercooler)
October MOT, May Tax
128,000 miles with Full History & a massive stack of reciepts
GTD Engine has done about 180,000, but I also have the full service history book for the engine.
Mint 90 spec interior, replaced drivers seat bolster.

Will come with the BBS alloys as on it and some show plates (got a tug last week after having them on 18 months!) plus £100 worth of ICE, proffesionally made MDF shelf, Kenwood 6x9s, JBL 507 components with the tweeters in the dash grills. Kenwood mp3 head units with ipod/ phone line in.

Stuff Ive done since ownership (over last 18 months)

16v springs & new gas shocks
new tailgate
new interior
remote central locking with a golf mk4 style flip key
electric windows (drivers mech has just gone so I have put the manual winder back on today!)
new exhaust
All new rear brakes for last MOT (disks/ pads /calipers)
G60 rear lights
put proper GTD clocks in

Can't remember what else, lots & lots of little things to make it feels like a nicer car to drive!

Engine is spot on, had to replace the cylinder head last October, but has been rock solid since.

Worst bit of car is the drivers rear quarter, the filler cap area is corroded (but the inner arch is fine) I have a repair panel which will come with the car, also a SMALL patch under the rear quarter window (got carried away with the paint!) (again I have a replacement panel) was on my list for this summer, but have decided to buy something newer

Sort that out the shell is solid, infact the MOT bloke was well impressed with it underneath as it is all waxoyled & never been welded!

Its a good solid Gti shell but with the economy of the diesel, few SMALL bits of rust here & there but nothing a rub down & paint won't sort. Apart from the rear quarter, there is no other rot.

Also got an EGT guage to go with it (sender is fitted in the manifold) & a turbo boost guage which I never got round to fitting.

Just done the oil & filter today and re-tensioned the drive belts, so its ready to rock & roll!

Looking for £895 which when you consider the wheels, interior & stereo gear must be worth £300 aint bad I dont think!!

I'm in Huddersfield West Yorkshire UK

PM if you want it :cry:
