hi guys looking at new build focus for a cruise car. im looking at buying cheaper to have more for bits. ive found a 95 gl golf 161 thou ks auto. and a 96 seat 216 thou manual . has anybody got opinions which would help decide which to start with. both are within $500 of each other ... i dont want to build a show or race car just a good cruise car .

I would go the GL.
Less km's and more readily available information.

My only worry would be the Auto.


Why not pick up Dom's parents VR6?
