Would happily check out the MK2 but for that kind of money it would have to be mint or pretty close to it.

That Mk2 looks like one that was kicking around a few weeks ago for $2500
It had a decent size dent in the driver's door.....this one looks like it has had it's drivers door replaced...the colour doesn't match

Yup I bought the auto off of Gumtree Its nowhere near where i'd want it to be but since buying it i've gone a fair way to making it more reliable for a start. The drivers door was fine the dent was in the area bellow the hatch and the drivers side headlamp was broken, Inside was a treat though. plus I have heaps of spares and new bit arriving all the time

I would have dived on that car as soon as I saw it, but was auto
Pity the one on there now is so highly priced

**Rax** · 04-12-2011, 11:17 PM

Yeah a real pity but there are a few over east that make a trip to Sydney or Vic quite attractive, for that kind of money I could have a holiday at the same time

. Would really like a nice mint MK2 and I don't mind buying another one but the price would have to right for whats on offer.

Hard to find a mint one in WA for a reasonable price. So I guess instead of paying top dollar, pay less for a rough one and spend the money on restoration.

True enough. Speaking of restos you guys know any good panel shops around Perth that you can reccomend for a respray and some panel repair and alignment?
