cbowditch 2 Posted February 9, 2014 Mk4s are very rare now. Looks in good nick, and a 1.3 is rare as well :thumbup: Like the others said though, Mk4s have no rust proofing, so leaving out in the elements is not a great idea. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

westie289 0 Posted February 11, 2014 You'll be glad to know the car is undersealed :) long story short, basically I have a fused knee due to a motorbike accident that happened a couple years back when I was 17, so I got this when I was bedbound, assuming id be able to come straight out of hospital, pass my test and have this as a first car. Circumstances changed and my knee is now fused, but still managed to pass my driving test in a manual, but can't drive this as the brake pedal is too high for me. Hence why I have a mk5 auto on the road at the moment. Iv found that newer cars I have driven are fine to drive but older cars aren't. So I'm trying to think/find a way to solve this as I do really want it on the road, BUT keep it original. I will post more pictures tonight :) and no no corsairs not mine, it's a friends. Going Sierra powered so Iv been told :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
