[mrcityrunner]

Hello... Just wondering if anyone has or knows of any clean mk3 golf for sale...ideally nicely stanced on decent rims and full leather...2.0 gti ideal .... Many thanks!!

[Dr G]

Try Edition38, Wheelwes etc. - Pistonheads isn't normally the number one location for show cars

"Stanced"

"Dub" & "Form>Function" stickers etc. Try some cack fanboy forum for that tat.

Why reply like that? If that is what the OP wants then good luck to him. He only asked for advice and if his profile is true he has a rather nice car compared to a lot of other on this forum

Very true Andy...I just ignored him.

Back in the day I had a golf mk3 gti highline... I have a Porsche 911 gen 2 now, but theres something magical about reliving the good old days....I just don't have the time to mess about too much so wanted to buy one already done.... It's just a question of finding a tasteful one cheers

I'm not a fan of cars that low, but I'm strangely drawn to that - I like the Vento headlights, but the two photos show two different front ends...

Thanks for the post about the show car...I'll hunt down the seller lol...

Do, because it's not just the headlights and grill, it's the bonnet too...

Is that safe for work?

Worth noting on that Golf that the wheel/tyre combo is beyond the ETRTO limits for stretch. Should be no more than a 7.5" rim width for those tyre sizes.

[Dr G]

It's definitely a 'show' car - I wouldn't volunteer to drive it anywhere but you pays your money you takes your choice.

Making old Golfs borderline undrivable is entirely socially acceptable.

A couple of months ago I bought for £1500 an almost perfect 98 VR6 5 door. The same amount again in that would almost certainly have made it plenty low enough even without doing any work yourself.

The best part of £6k I'd struggle with regardless of how much work was in it.

[Andy OH]

To get a car to that spec you would easily spend £4K or more, so in that respect to the right person the car isn't overly expensive. Also one would hope that any remedial work to body work would have been carried out prior to the re-spray so there should be no issues for a good number of years.

[Dr G]

Oh, easily; it's a small marketplace that I guess would be hard for a relative 'outsider' to appreciate the ins and outs of.

Ive totally fallen for these cars that I googled as they look drivable &
nicely modified...very hard to find owners of these types of cars

Because its tat. As per recent poster "making old golfs borderline undrivable is socially acceptable" what a load of st.

Usual PH. Thread derailed by some dhead who has to have his say. The OP didn't ask for an opinion, so why feel compelled to give one?

Short on fire wood then?



Yes harsh, but anything 'stanced' deserves it.

If I see something st then I might mention it. Thats my prerogative just as yours is the parhetic childish name calling.

[andrewparker]

Mention away, but all you're doing is dragging this place down. Ask about stanced Golfs in General Gassing and I'd probably agree that you're fair game, but this is the VAG forum and the guy is asking a simple question. Your opinion is unhelpful and not wanted.
