pogweasel Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 0316601121 Could be a Mk1, could be a Mk2. Either way at that cost I oughta be in clover to a lesser or greater extent. MASSIVELY in the dog house though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retrogeezer Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 well you are highly unlikely to lose out with that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KruJoe Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Good result, Pog, I hope RG is right... seller says he got it off eBay, but has a big zero feedback... either lying, been banned, or forgot all his passwords. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simmo Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Good result, Pog, I hope RG is right... seller says he got it off eBay, but has a big zero feedback... either lying, been banned, or forgot all his passwords. Or using someone elses account like a few at work do with mine, as I'm desk bound and can moniter listings. Not everyone on Ebays at it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parky Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Whats the worst that can happen? Its not a huge amount of money so if it turns out to be a dog you can write it off and chalk it up to experience. Although Mrs Pog might not be so keen on the new driveway decoration.

Richard Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I think it's almost certainly Mk2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r.welfare Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Prob'ly a Mk2, but I think these early ones have a bit of kudos with Mk2 GTI fans, something to do with the P-slots and exhaust cutout on the rear panel or somesuch (frantically remembering random bits of Danny Hopkins column from PC years back). For £92, if it's a dog it'll still break for a few quid plus weighing of the shell. If it's any good you could MOT it and make a few more quid that way...but I do wonder, even with zero feedback, it ain't difficult for the fella to "lift" the old eBay ad pics, unless he bought it > 3 months ago.Keep us posted - looks like you're having to pick it up today anyway, according to the ad? We need pics, my good man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk1_4dr Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I reckon it'll be a mk2 too. Aren't the thing with early mk2s' the lack of side repeaters and little GTi plaques instead?Either way, as long as it isn't completely borked, its a cheap way into a GTi D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VWPowered Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Mk2's came out on a 83 'A' so will defo be a Mk2 but a nice early one which was not loaded with bits and still had the 112bhp motor.. should/could have the original mk1 style strips rather than black rubber stips on the lower half of the doors, and even the early interior... this is a early mk2, this has the uber rare 2 lamp GTI grille.. as Mk1 GTI's are now fetching silly money it wont be long for the near 30 year Mk2 (especially an early version) to also fetch a good premium just my 2p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pillock Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 How on earth did he think it was going to sell for anywhere near decent money with such a level of detail in the advert. All he knows about it is that there's over 100k on the clock and he's the 11th owner. Brilliant!Be hard to lose with that though, strip the trim out and crush the shell if it's that bad but if it's Atlas Grey it's quite a favoured colour and you'll be able to sell doors, tailgate etc for a few quid, it'll have the nice stripy seats too which always fetch a bob or three.

gtd2000 Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 over 100000 miles on clockSo that's narrowing it down a bit then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Bo11ox Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I hope its a MK2, i think an early unscened Mk2 GTi with its springs still intact is a thing of great beauty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
