    yes, on road for 3kish, it has its flaws but i would say it's condition 8 on a scale of 0-10.

    then again opts been on stands for the last two weeks as it needs clutch work..

    I had a Oz Mk2 GTI.
    I sold it to a bloke that works in the city.
    Here is an old picture of it....

    Took the GTI for a run through the hills to Lobethal on Saturday afternoon. Didnt see any other Mk2's out unfortunately.
    The car handled brilliantly but I was a little surprised at just how slow the thing is!

    yep that was my feeling as well, also my is a bit floppy in the corners, could definitely do with some stiffer springs, as soon as i get mine going we should go for a run, or try to gather as many mk2's and do a run together. I believe its the only place the car shines, the streets are don't suit it...

    Also if you see a ae82 4age corolla, don't bother trying to race with him, those things are bloody nimble!

    Yeah, we should get a few together and do a run somewhere.

    Are you installing coilovers in yours?

    Is there a specific ae82 I should be watching out for, or should they all be avoided?

    I'd say just about any small Japanese car in general.
    MK2 - *Insert list of dealer purchased extra's/standard features here*
    80 series - The MK2's BIG, Sooty, polar opposite...
