hey jimster, is the mk2 past or present?
full on 90's look on the go there!
Past.
As it was in 2000, morning before I got the exhaust fitted. Mods were getting to be a bit of pain - battery going flat after two weeks away, so no central locking, so no way of opening the doors (or bonnet)... Idle stab valve always needed cleaning on the valvers. Moisture got into the indicators when they were in the fog holes... pain over the speed humps that have proliferated around Nottingham...
Having done all the mods to Mk2s several times over, and walking around the GTI shows at the time, I decided that if I was going to do it all again, it's better to opt out of playing most of the games. I'd have a 3dr 1991 spec shell, keep it completely standard apart from painting it a colour VW don't do, and putting Mk5 transmission in it. Having 5x100 hubs gives you a world of decent wheel choices too.
Yours is a very early one, your wipers still wipe to the left (german wiper mech).
