I wish we had the Jetta since the mk1 I think they're so cool looking
'87 Jetta GTI 16v
this Jetta is my most recent purchase
Bought as a doner for the GT and also as a track toy. Its completely standard and will not be abused but used! It will serve as a good tool to get back to form and improve somewhat before I get my Golf Syncro out on the track. A few cheap and simple mods and plenty of smiles for the money!
2nd post:
so..... the parts collection is in full swing
i have removed the knackered interior (which ill be using parts for the GT Special) and fitted a late GL interior./ This cost me £20 for the rear seat as im borrowing most of my brothers Golf GL interior
Im awaiting a pair of 14k powerflex bushed wishbones and rear beam bushes £65
Eibach -40mm springs, weitec rears and spax fronts with a years use £90
stainless powerflex exhaust (i mmight have to mod the tailpipe as it came from a big bumper model) £105
post 3:
The suspension is on worth the addition of front Bonrath poly top mounts. Still loads to do, but its had a damn good clean and I robbed the wheels from the Syncro. Ive also fitted the seats from an '88 Jetta GTI 16v (im looking for manual cards as I dont want electrics)
Here it is at DC09

As I have said before,the MK2 Jetta is a classic,and put VW on the map in a lot of countries.
What a pity it was never sold in Australia.
I beleive a few have been imported in,but I am yet to see one here.
