my tuppence.
.
.
my mk1 is of the road and has been for 6month since moving 90 miles and deciding to pull it off the road pending petrol costs
(now do 350mile a week for work), so its off the road until i get a garage to keep it in and work on it
(traffic wardens are demons in brighton).
.
i bought a diesel for the time being, and have a turbo conversion for the mk1 on the back burner.
Felt i had to explain!.
.
heres the feeling,.
.
i see mk1's and mk2's and mk3's
the mk1 in my opinion is the best looking model.
its pretty plain by comparison, but a true classic,
every time i see a mk1 driving around brighton it hurts bad!, i want mine back
on the road a.s.a.p
like nothing else, its a unique indivdual rocket.
and has far more character than the curvy cars of today.
I'm a bit biased as ive never drove a mk2, but i never will, i love the mk1 too much.
mac sheavils is selling
nice examples of the mk1, but you would be hard pushed to find a nice
normally aspirated Mk1 without doing some work of some kind, and then if your going to pay that much.
.
4.5k!,,
you really should get a little more power for your money, contrary to that.
.
.
the last thing your going to want is a mk2 driver whizzing past you<<--- did i say that??
its a toughie, theres my vote
i dont know if its still for sale.
.
www.mr2mk1club.com, but have a look at this beauty, thats one good looking little car, smart, sophisticated, quick as you need, classic!.
.
if i had 4.5k??!.
.
its still tough, maybe if the miles were a little lower or the price definately would.
