New Members Say Hi! / Re: Buying a Mk2 in Spain
Cheers Eddy,

Still haven’t had a chance to go and look at it, hopefully will do in the next couple of days.

It’s currently parked at a VW garage, so it’s not the worst place for it to be stuck for a while haha.

Thanks for the tips, will update this post if I go and look it at/buy it and then I imagine I’ll have many more questions!

Hi Eddy,

There are a few around on the roads (ranging from the ratty to the immaculate) but it’s quite  "uncommon"  that one comes up for sale, where I am anyway.

The owner of the one I’m looking at just offered me it for a grand if I sort out the breakdown.. however it rings a few warning bells as the car doesn’t start and she claimed that the necessary repairs would cost 120e. In my eyes something doesn’t add up, or perhaps I’m not enough of a risk taker.

New Members Say Hi! / Buying a Mk2 in Spain
Hi everyone,

Recently a nice looking mk2 came up for sale near me..I am planning to go and look at it over the weekend.
I've been speaking to the owner and she mentioned that the distributor rotor and cap need changed. How simple a job is this? i had a look at parts and they aren't too expensive from what I've seen..

It's a 1991 1.6 petrol, bodywork looks great from what I can see from the photos. What kind of price do you think is reasonable? Currently the owner is looking for 1800e

Thanks for any help in advance
