    I am speechless ...

    great to see that someone still values these cars ! Hardly any left in Europe as people literally throw them away "en mass" and emission rules are getting tighter by the year. I wonder for how much longer I will be able to hold on to my Golf, which is now the oldest car in my entire area !

    In the EU older vehicles pay more road taxes and are often even banned from cities in order to force people to trade up ! Stupid dictatorship !!!

    I love the photos mate ! Hope you'll soon get your car back and that you'll enjoy Japan ! How are you adapting to the winter there ?

    Are the mk1 2 and 3 golfs that rare down under? Ask the south african guys. over her they are all over. We even have a countrywide network of spare shops called "VAG GOLFWAGEN" Anything u want u can get here exept the golf and jetta mk3 interior items are getting hard to find.

    Benny, did you ever get to the last site where they store the parts cars?

    Cheers

    Here's a link to the garage in Tokyo.

    Looks like they still like their MK2's.



    If anyone can read Japanese it would be interesting to know if they ship cars to Oz.

    I speak the language of internationally offensive gestures and I can tell you that specific gesture is one that may not lean towards friendly exporting of their captive MK2s.

    Pictures of the car mate. What engine is fitted, what speedo and rev counter. A picture of the build sticker from the wheel well in the boot or service book, if by some miracle you have that.
