Hi Coz, It seems to me that you are emotionally attached to this car and therefore should not sell it. If its needs to go for financial reasons then
its a different story.....sell to whoever has the $. Wayne

The funniest bit about this whole thread is the controversy that would be about if this was a splitty. People would be really pissed and all emotive
about it but seeing as it's a watercooled it seems no-one gives a shit.
Tell me i'm wrong....

a different opinion from someone who lived overseas and who values good cars ...
this is a classic Golf, there are hardly any left in Australia nor in Europe in this condition. The car is registred and in excellent shape plus it is
well under way to become unique as it has been left alone from tuning and is original. I lived in the US and people there don't value cars at all. I
also think it should stay in Australia because it is one of the best countries in the world ! The US is terrible. You'll probably find a buyer here
also. There are a lot of Europeans and people from England who look exactly for this kind of car.
All the very best !!

Nick u speak the truth yes there are plenty of Mk1 Golf's in Australia but they have been thrashed and bashed. It almost impossible to find a 3 door
and now the time has come where decent 4 door's are getting rare.
I knocked the person back in the US as im in no hurry to sell (as the baby is coming in July!) so if i don't sell it by then i will look overseas.
Tim no probs perhaps a Passat would be better

Costa, same situation with the notch I had for sale. It eventually went to a US buyer as there was no interest from anyone here, until after it was
sold.....
The freight to the US cost the buyer almost as much as the car.
AVDers, dont let our rust free cars head off shore.
I can vouch Costa's the MK1 golf, tight as a drum, and zippy too, a great little example of a rare and soon to be rarer VW.
Wayne.
