Golf GL...

[Dubdubdubdot]

Ok well, I'm 17 and want a frakin car already.

Looking for a '97/98 VW Golf GL, stock, in good condition, maunal, <140000km, in NSW... planning on some stuff for it too, so budgets $6500/
Something similiar to this. Actually it probally would be that if someone hadn't got their grubby hands on it before me.

Anyway, I can only wait to snap something like that up, you guys can't really help (unless you know of one)

Well all thats beside the point, I do actually need your help. Much to my lack of google skillz, I need to know some basic cost associated with these vechiles, such as:
- General servicing
- Gearboxes
- etc

..oh and the replacement of problem items, which I can gather may be the electric windows on certain models???

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hey man, welcome to the forums. A lot of us are close to your age, you'd be surprised!

Anyways...the search function is your friend. Lots of people here ask the same questions all the time, so it's been covered in this section more times than you could be bothered poking a stick at

if you search the mk3 section for 'what to look for' then i think lots of info will come up. If not, someone will correct me and tell you what to search for

Good luck with your dub hunting!

Consider this car.

It's a Seat Cordoba, it's basically a MK3 mechanically, it's got the right mileage and the right price for what you're after.

They drive nicely and are just as reliable as the MK3s without the pricetag.

Hopfully will be looking at this tomorrow. Chances are it will disappear before then, like the other two golfs I have attempted to go look at/posssibly purchase. This is driving me to tears
