Well I have brought my first VR6. I went down to Newquay like I said I was going to do and look at her. Well body wise I was expecting it to be better as there is rust in usual places. No rust in engine bay or bottom of the boot but will need paint job to bring up to standard. Reflex Silver. Nice pearlescent colour which won't be cheap to repair !!! Mechanically ....well she got us up the road so is not bad. I think the coils issue is making itself known as intermittent misfire appears now and then. Whirring noise from rear so bearing gone ? Clutch is near end of life but everything works and

Condition is good . Still got to see her up close though. Mileage is 132k. Motd til next July. Sorry. I'm not from Falmouth. Meeting with friends and drive her home to Scotland on Sunday if all OK. Mechanically not bad but not a pro !! Trying to get a lock up from my local council for it but no word yet. Yeah I would be making sure KEVIN kept his hands off her !!!!! Looking forward to driving and working on her. Second car for me and missus to enjoy. Vw enthusiast like you so will take my time getting her up to a good standard.

I am off to Falmouth at the weekend to look at a 1994 silver 5 dr model. Visiting my friend at same time so see what happens. I missed the other one. Is it quite pricey for repairing paint work etc ? The car is 20 years old so not expecting it to be a minter at 1500 quid ! Mechanicals , body work then slight mods over next 18 months ....i hope !

Hi guys. Saw a P reg 3dr Golf in Metallic Twilight Violet advertised on gumtree. Its out in the east of Scotland which would be good for me distance wise. Pics of outside and engine but none inside. Quite standard looking which I like and motd to next July. Doesn't say anything about service history. 125k miles and only £995. Feel that's quite cheap. Any advice ? Cheers. Gary.

Hi . I have just registered as I am looking for a vr6 as my second car to enjoy. My name is Gary and I live in the Stirling area of Scotland. I have around the 1500-2000 mark to spend just now. I am not sure what I could get for that but hopefully not too much work to be done !! Any tips and advice will be much appreciated and I look forward to chatting to fellow vr6 enthusiasts . Cheer's. Gary.
