coupes in general are fairly rare and diesel ones are even rarer. I've seen a few, both TD and NA

I've got a 91 Golf NA.  Can't find 2-door specific parts in any of the local junkyards, so not too common.  I personally wouldn't pay one extra dime over a 4-door.   If it's rough, I'd stay away unless you're only paying parts car price for it.

depends on what your plan for it is..
if you want to save a rare car from the crusher, it's an opportunity to do that.
the only absolutely exclusive parts on that car are the rear quarter windows and seals, and the rubber rain channels.. doors are same as 2 door golf, truck is same as 4 door jetta etc..

Never made them in the UK, but were a few on mainland europe.

I have a 3dr GTi with GTD engine conversion, got a thread up for it
