well yeah that would be the plan, although i would leave the coils on to sweeten the deal.....

If it was me i wouldn't, but its your call mate. I can see you living to regret it...

Are you thinking you want something more practical for a daily drive and have your other Mk1 as a fun car?

Show us some inspiration pics of Ventos that you like.... I prefer the Mk3 Golf VR6 myself, but i'm open to change my mind

I wouldn't do it unless i simply wanted something more practical that i didn't have to "look after" as much.

But if you want to go and modify it with paint and accessories etc, i really think that would be a backwards step. Your Mk1 is very unique and has massive character. Most VW's of the Mk3 variety are full of squeaks and rattly trim. Most will have MORE Kms than what your Mk1 has.. The only benefit really being it might have air con...

**DubSteve** · 07-02-2009, 08:48 PM

I would seriously consider it,having owned a 1988 GOLF1,Citigolf in South Africa,and a Vento,or rather Jetta 3 in America and one in South Africa.
The A3 is a superior car,but very diffirent to an A1.
Much safer,with lots of equipment,as in comparison the A1 has no features...luxury or safety.
