Ive just bought a shell and wondered how many more of these were about and what specific spares are still available. Im collecting it next weekend and mothballing it until my other project is finished. At the least it will be a track car for weekends or I did have this idea............................. Pics of any others please
Asin a 2 door? We didn't get them in the UK, very common in Germany though As for spares it's just a Golf with a boot, same as any other Jetta..?
Hi Jolfa I meant 2 dr mk2 jetta specific spares. I know they arent common and tbh i never thought id ever get one
Such as what? They use the same everything as 3 door MK2 Golfs up to the C pillars, then you can use 4 door Jetta spares from there...
i dont know what as this car is new to me. Just thought it would be a good idea to find out if any trim etc. Obviously the roof liner and roof rubbers but what else?
In terms of spare parts it will be much the same as normal Jetta and Golf in terms of avaliability from VW, most trims and bodywork pieces are slowly becoming obsolete and hard to get due to the age of the cars but most mechanical parts remain avaliable. To be fair anything Jetta coupe specific I'd imagine will be long since obsolete. As I've said general spares are out there easy enough to get. Intresting project you have there, look forward to seeing its progress.
Cool car! I've been trying to find a 2 door jetta for years. One came up cheap a few years ago with a VR6 engine in. Sadly someone got in before me, then I saw it the next year at dubfreeze with a poor paint job and 2k+ price tag. I was gutted. Considering driving one back from Germany in the summer!
you'd be even happier to know that car is longer around, scrapped I believe, if you are talking about the peppermint green one Thats how I got my one, not hard to find in Holland, Germany or Austria, and not that expensive either There are a few specifics that are unique to the Coupe, but most of them that spring to mind have already been mentioned I think. If I remember any others I'll post them up
cool. Its pretty much as i thought it would be then. Ill see exactly what i have when i pick it up on saturday.
well ive managed to salvage enough out of the spares that came with it to pay for the car, trailer hire, petrol and sandwiches BONUS- free car! The rear windows are differnt but I have a pair + rubbers on route from the US. I have the old roof rubbers, but its basically a shell. So what do I do with it??? Rear engined RWD is a tempting option
I thought the rear windows were same as MK2 Golf 3dr sure a mate of mine has one of these sitting in his garden because he was going to make it a track car then got bored with it, so its collecting moss
50 posted with rubbers which i think is fair. Dont know if ill use them but they will be there if i want them
