Prices is there an end in sight??

I did consider replacing the roof and getting a new headlining, but although I think I could do it well enough, it would take me so long that it could be another 10 years before I get it back on the road. I actually quite like having a sunroof, even taking it completely out on nice days as a semi convertable.

Right now I'd be happy to drive it regardless of the sunroof situation.

i do think a webasto roof is better than a glass roof but when you look at the big picture a sunroof has saved a lot of cars from the idiots that want to make them into a rally car

I know what you mean i have got 15k and i can not find a good one at all
Got a mk3 GTI Kev

i know the feeling andy as im in the same boat, been looking for 4 months now was even going to go over to Gurnsey to have look at that mex but the guy sold it last weekend also tried bigjohnnie about his but he took it off the market to use it. All the time there a not many on the market the prices will keep going up as people are just buying what they can when they come on the market thus driving prices up.

lol done it befor could do it again ppl no what i can do with a mk2

no doubt you could Paul, but building a car to the standards you put into the last one, i doubt £15k would be enough nowadays..sourcing a shell...then the bodywork, paint then all the trick bits, aint cheap building one from scratch

MK1 & 2 Golf GTi's are the new Escorts. Get one while you can.

Get a MK2 XR2 at least it's a Ford

your righ dave i spose if i added all the parts up i had for years and the work i had done on RRR and all the nice bits and the engine and gartrac bits then the car will total over £40k

and theres me trying to find another to do it all again pmsl

[RStu]

RRR was the bollocks fair play

[Rallye]

MK1 Fiesta is a better choice.

sorry son if your going fwd you got go 16i or s1

[Brynmor Pierce]

it all depends on what your looking for in your new purchase Brynmor.....are you on the hunt for a standard, modified, concourse etc mk2?????
its seems like standard cars are very very rare in RS spec these days for sale............
mine is one of those cars but there are 2 mods 1: 7" rs wheels, 2: spax adjustable front inserts, both can be changed at any time....still got the 1.6 pinto as well but god are they bleeding slow

In fairness i'd actually prefer a modded car as standard/concours kings just aren't my thing at all....i'll be honest i've not seen a tidy useable RS fitting this bill for less than £10k,there is the base model on here at £9k but as I say just not my thing (although surprised someones not bought it)

Even cars with rust bubbles on arches etc up at £13k...utter utter madness...

[mk1gaz]

Prices are high due to the cost of decent restorations , decent parts etc etc . Probably £500 for a new rs2000 gear knob , lol .
