The cars worth about a grand more than that.
You would have to be mental to spend that money without looking to add another £500 and buying another complete car for it:S
Wouldnt say its a steal but its accuratley priced, if you can negociate 100-150 off it then id say your doing well.
Rust isnt a known problem mate but like anything else check for it anyway.
I paid £3850 for my Phase 1 back in March 2008 and that only had 44k on it.
£2500 will get you a good condition Ph1 tbh.
£3000-3400 will secure you a seriously low mileage minter but then fun can be had in any of them that have been looked after tbh
tbh i wouldnt be busy asking people what they think, id be on the phone right now.
That wont be for sale long.
I never post links to cars im after, your only attracting an audience to a potential buy ;)
...toward Mosspark, a chap with specks checking out the wee darlings in the short skirts, dynamite they were aswell...
I was in the 106 GTi also checking them out, i wanted to get out and touch them :dapprove:
Anyone giving it?
Very good mate, theres always going to be limitations as to what can be done.
My old boys a mechanic/engineer and as i said the same as you he always said theres no substitute for cubic capcity.
Theres eye for individuality though ;)
I gather this is the 1.5 DCi engine variant? Thats fair gains there, you generally find that diesels across the board respond better to remaps regarding torque and mid range acceleration.
I always think that unless you have a direct air feed i.e a false fog/spot light then heatsoak is always going to be an issue...?
I have one one my 106 GTi and tbh having not had it RR or anything theres no way to tell? Sure it makes it sound nice but real world gains...?
Tbh, sarcasm is all i can offer you at this time of night/morning dependant on how many sugars you take in your tea.
If you were closer id offer you a back rub and a rendition of Mandy by Barry Manilow if your that way inclined.
Clearly what happened is all the Hondas V-Tec'd at the same time and the world span the other way creating some sort of reverse fusion like state and every other vehicle came to a standstill.
