If it runs as well as he states then £250 is a bargain.
Problem is insurance, I want to insure the car for about 5k a year, I will only use it to rag around at weekends. I have a daily running car already.
I want my GF on the insurance too, quotes are £460TPFT. I'm 22 with 2 years no claims. Not good enough really.

Not really, consider you have no claim, 2 drivers on a Golf GTI ? granted its old but still going to be on the road regardless. It's not going to be much cheaper unless you get something like a old fiesta, but then you might pay £500 for that and it might be a rusty nail.
I'd buy it, theyre pretty easy to fix if the engine breaks anyways and 130000 miles is nothing on a mk2 golf.
the price is probably about right the 16v lost value when leaded petrol was stopped, they didnt take too well to unleaded/that other stuff which is supposedly for leaded cars. The timing iirc had to be retarded and as such it lost a little power (the 8v were fine)

This isn't looking too good.
