How easy is it?

ah, few people here can sort you out with whatever you need.
Ive had no problems at all with my UK Mk2 GTI parts wise.

Parts are available, there are specialists over here but be prepared to find the prices pretty steep. Shipping your car over isn't a cheap exercise either but if you can't manage without the car, then get it on a boat. A few Poms have brought cars over here. I didn't bother because mine was LHD.

If you can buy a part in England, you can buy it in Australia.

We had an official shippment of about 200 8v gti's, so you can get most of the parts from VW Aus, A lot of people bring parts over as well
mk3 is a common car here & there is a good supply of compatable mechanical parts for a mk2
there people like me who keep a few mk2 bits & peices

If you don't bring it over with you will probably regret it & never forecive yourself, like a few other people

So I would recomend that you bring it with you, the nore the better

Bring your car mate. Especially if it is a 2 door. Very few over here, so will be worth the $$.

Its about $2000 to ship the car here and if you have owned it for a year, its a personal import and you pay no tax on it.

I left a Scirocco Storm in the UK and have always regretted it.

Bring it, I heavily regret having left my Golf2 in Europe ! They never die in the first place as they are solid as rocks, so I reckon you won't need that many spare parts.

I wonder though, if so many people are interested in bringing cars, why doesn't anybody try to figure out a better and easier way to bring them over, or even organise a shipping ?? MK2 Golf's are really cheap in Europe right now so you could actually make a lot of money as well.
