Trev, I've never had any interest in one, I was looking for a daily as Ive been hacking around in the T4 without a DOE and I want to do a few bits for the ticket plus start converting it etc! I had bought a MK2 Gti but it too needed work before it could be used daily so that was a silly move (shifted it on Sunday!), I had been tempted buy the 67 that my mate ended up with and then I decided to look for an E class Benz and drop it! I got a phone call for my Dad to say his job where trading in a Newbie and it all happened rather quickly!
Its a 00 2L with 58k on the clock. It needs manning up alright, Im looking for a set of wheels but after that I wont touch it!!! It starts first turn and will be reliable, if tirsty but at least I dont have any interest in spending money modifying it!!! I got it for a decent price so shouldnt loose on it even if I keep it a year!
