Nice choice and special too. I had a GTi Mk2 8v which I loved again for similar reasons to the BMW above. A friend of mine had his Oak green Mk2 16v rebuilt to either 1900 or 2100 by one of the big VW tuning houses. Cant remember who. I want to say BRM. Anyway it was plenty quick after and they were a pretty quick car in standard form. As you will know.
Sorry this is getting a wee bit off track but Im just remembering a special Golf I once owned. A supercharged G60 Golf identical to this one below. I wanted something rarer than the Rallye which actually was also pretty rare.
