I have just asked the seller to send me a pic.

Its only £1300, I only want to buy it for a bit of fun I have a TT and the Golf for when i need a proper car. Also I can park this on the street in front of my house without being bothered about it getting stolen. The other cars are in a underground garage which is approximately a 10 min walk from my house.

3rd party insurance will only cost £60 for the year

Well you will be pleased to know that I will not be buying this car. Unfortunately when going to visit a client in the TT today I had a bit of an accident. He lives in a compound outside of Prague. The idiot of a security guard directed me down the wrong road. I drove around a corner to find the hill suddenly became very steep and even the Quattro with winter tyres could not get up it. I ended up sliding backwards / sideways VERY slowly into a well placed bring wall. There was not very much I could have done really.

The damage is not too bad (around £400 I think) so I may as well spend the money on fixing the car and Revo + SPS3

The golf is used as a run-around but its just drinking petrol as if its going out of fashion.

Ah well it was a nice idea but not going to happe. Oh and yah the 500 is much nicer but its very hard to find a good one.

sell the golf and get a better car for your needs then?

The plan is the misses (well sort of) is going to take over the golf completely this summer.

I will keep the TT until the end of the summer and sell it on because I need to grow up and buy a flat. I will probably have to drive a Fabia (or something like that) for a while until I can afford something a bit more fun again lol
