Hey Jake123, make sure when you find one to get it checked out by a good VW mechanic. I didnt, and was very sorry after what I was told after the
first service. The engine was on its last legs even thought it went well when I bought it. The engine blew 2 weeks later. Got quoted for a reco engine
for around the $5000 mark. Not good considering the car cost $5000 and was told the engine only had 30,000km on it. Keep checking ebay, I have seen
since buying mine many great T3's for around the $5000 mark, even some that have had Subaru conversion done. I ended up doing a suby conversion in
mine and highly recommend it if you can find one done already. Just get to be patient......
