There was a red one for sale there a couple of years ago. I managed to get a look at some detailed pics of it
If its the same one there is a considerable amount of rust around the strut tower on the D/S & a very basic GTI options wise.

There wasn't a lot of options on 16Vs to be fair. They got the beesting, central locking, electric windows, tints, sunroof, alloys as std. Which is pretty much most of the options that you see regularly. Aircon and headlight washers were rare as in the UK.

My GTI G60 which is the top MK2 outside the Limited had keep fit windows.

I concur, my 16v has sunroof, tinted windows, electric windows, beesting, have fitted aircon myself.....No elec mirrors and not really interested in them.

I forgot power steering early small bumper 16Vs didn't all have it.

I remember the one I saw before had light beige/cream cloth interior, which really didn't do a car like that justice & no P/S or A/C, not thats always an issue
I think the owner at that time was a professor at Adelaide uni

Have you managed to have a look at this one Gavin?
(Headlight washers sound a bit flash)

Good news!!

i found a 2dr mk2 16v GTi,
just wondering what sort of things should i look out for before buying it.
besides the basic check over mechanically, bodywork etc. is there anything else to take into consideration?
