tony_ack · June 11, 2013

1.8 GTI 8v, Tornado red, more door, 1992 Runout model with the following extras:

Rainbow interior

PAS

Front electric windows

BBS RA alloys

Hella smoked rear lights

No tax or MOT

217000 miles

Good Points:

Recent respray by a previous owner in the original colour. Colour is really deep, no fading at all. Looks like the 3rd wiper hole was sealed and welded and the fuel filler surround was replaced as there is no rot in either of these places.

Pretty standard apart from K&N panel filter

Alloys look like they've been recently refurbed and are in very good condition, with locking wheel blots

Good tyres all round - Fronts are recently replaced Pirelli P6 Cintaros, rears are Toyo PX4s

Laserline Cat 1 Alarm/immboilser with certificate

Two fobs and sets of keys

Rainbow interior is mint - it looks like the driver's bolsters have been recently replaced as the cloth is good and the bolsters are firm. Headliner is pert.

All trim including badges is present

Bad points

-Battery tray is rotten - may need to be replaced for MOT, or at you'll at least need to find a way to secure the battery

-There was some welding on one of the front jacking points for the last MOT

-Some rust on the driver's front chassis leg

-A couple of rust spots around the car

Minor Laquer peel on the rear quarter

Dent in bonnet (should pull out easily as it's shallow and not on a swage line)

Engine is now on 217000 miles and is burning a little oil. I did a compresion test which came out at 10.5 bar dry, 13 bar wet, so I suspect it's the rings (10 bar is min normal tolerance)

Due a cambelt (genuine VW cambelt I can include).

Washer motor doesn't work (may need to replace for MOT)

Recent work:

Replaced PAS and Alternator belts

New front tyres

Engine timing/CO set

New VW thermostat

Replaced oil cooler and flushed cooling system

Up for £600

I also have a 2 litre 2e bottom end that I can include for free, at the asking price, however it has been sat (inside) for some time so I need to check the condition of the bores. Or I can sell separately for £50.
