EnthusiasticEdward 0 Posted July 13, 2005 Hi I have recently been thinking why certain people prefer a Convertible over a normal Mk1 Golf.. ..Personally I think that although these are lovvvvely cars, in the convertible form they do kind of suit the women then the men.... what do you guys think?....Would you prefer to be seen in a convertible or a "normal"? I know I could just not drive a convertible in public! :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EnthusiasticEdward 0 Posted July 13, 2005 I think if i turned up to my boxing gym in one of them people would laugh at me and all, if any, respect would be lost! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrishill 0 Posted July 13, 2005 I think the clipper was produced for much longer than the mk1 itself (someone correct me if i'm wrong though!) meaning theres more late examples about and they're probably an easier base for a project being a bit newer. Personally i'd prefer a normal mk1, although i've seen some very very nice clippers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DEL VR6 0 Posted July 13, 2005 I think this is an all time cool and classic car. However i would not have one. I think that they have got a bit of an image problem. Round here it tends to be a bit of a hairdressers car. If anyone is reading this and owns one, i dont mean to cause offence to you. just my opinion. Edward, depends on your own taste at the end of the day. I say wait, save up and get yourself a Corrado. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DEL VR6 0 Posted July 13, 2005 BTW, the clipper is reputedly pose value only. they dont move very well as they didnt benefit from the GTi power. As a result, a second hand clipper will be cheaper. The GTi's are fetching high prices right now. Stick to a Corrado EnthusiacticEddy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EnthusiasticEdward 0 Posted July 13, 2005 I would like a Corrado soon...but still searching A friend of mine had a Corrado he bought from London. It was a 16 valver in the same colour as yours DelVR6. But I tell you guys, never trust a cockney car sales man!! HE did my friend over like a kipper..All sorts of things started falling off... Once one of the handles to adjust the seat came off, so my friend being a plonker took it to one of his mechanics "Gary" and he used a silicon gun and glued it in!
