Picked this up last night. Wot do you guys think?? Its a 1993 Golf GTi 2L Its done 93000 miles, Full service history, perfect condition, all electrics. Paid 1600 for it. (sorry about the muck on the pics, it was raining)
ah memories, thats exactly how mine was when i bought it. Though i paid 5200 for mine about 4 years ago... nice car dude.
bargain Looks nice mate! with the money you have saved with that bargain you can now go and get some nice wheels
Thanks for all your opinions, it was a mega bargain and lowering/new rims are definitely on the cards, but not sure what to go for really. I want a smoothish ride and don't want it too low. What sort of springs/dampers would you recommend? I was thinking maybe KONI Adjustables? Also what size wheels can you get away with on a MK3? If I went for 17s would I be looking at something like 205/40/R17 with say a 35/40 drop, would arch clearance/gearing be an issue?
Got koni/eibachs on mine with 205/40/17 rubber and clearance is fine. Koni/eibachs are probably the best set up short of coilovers.(In my opinion,before I get shot down)
my mates bought a weitec kit from c and r for his mk3 8v .i went out in it for the first time yesterday and the ride was really good.i think it was -40mm but not harsh at all. i think it was the ultra gt kit.supposed to retain factory style ride quality just lower. ultra gt Edited by: alby
