Mk3 Golf estates, tell me about them...

I'm planning a career change that will invole me needing a van. I'm thinking of a mk3 esate.


What specs do they come in?
What do late ones fetch wise?
Are the interiors interchangable between GTI's and VR6's?
Any pics of nice ones?

Get a Mk4 Estate, they do a 1.8T

 

Cheers

That first ones a bit of a bargian!!!!

 

MK3 estates....why did they do it????

U shud just get a polo van, or a caravelle instead!!!

Or if u gettin the estate please modify it!!! cos then it wud look good!

 

You can get SEAT Inca vans pretty cheap Ian. Same as the VW Caddy vans.

 

If you intend to fill it with crap - just buy an old Volvo estate or something.

Bloody bulletproof those things.

 

I was thinking a mk3 estate so i could mix business with pleasure (family camping trips etc...)

 

I couldn't hand over money for anything without a VW badge on it.

 

Wat about a Passat VR estate?....

 

Nah, i think it would have to be a golf.


Whats the best to go for? Petrol or Diesel and what kind of miles can the TDi take before it gets tired?

 

mate has a 200 passat tdi estate with 220k on it, still goes really well

 

Go for diesel for sure...I do like the idea of a passat estated...but gold estates!!!!

Why turn a hot hatch, into a feckin estate!!! thats like choppin your your right testicle off and eating it!!!

 

Broadly speaking, I'd venture to say that this analogy is perhaps a little strong.

 

the mk3, a hot hatch

I'm struggling to see the similarity

 

diesel Passat is the way to go.these mothers are Heeeeuge (9ft ladder fits inside the car with the boot shut!)and I recently averaged 58 to the gallon on my holiday to Scotland......that works out to over 800 miles to a tank of fuel.

but it isn't as much fun as my GTI that's for sure.

 

what have you got planned now Ian?!

 

There was a superb Black Dutch one at inters '02.

Leather and very deep rims!

 

didnt lloyd have a red passat estate???

did he sell it?
