Dam I didn't notice that, that means the original aerial has been filled an painted on the wing, so it might of had more body work done during this time, best to have a good check mate, GSi,'s hide rust really well..

Your old one looked good, glad you'll be putting it back to standard and selling that heavy lump lol
scorge01
12-04-13, 09:19 PM
Yeah my thinking exactly Southie it's never been strengthened either so hope it ain't torn but boy said ain't done many miles with engine in so mot having strength kit is a bonus as original :)
id love a red gsi, next car i think once i sell the turbo!

13-04-13, 07:40 PM
when you selling the turbo nova mate ?
scorge01
13-04-13, 08:05 PM
Yeah know what you mean I miss my old red Gsi can't wait to get it (as long as its mint) won't be keeping it long tho as missus ain't happy says I should just finish the ones I have but mines won't be on road for show season so want one for that then I will have to part with it :(

That's **** news mate but why did he waste your time to view it to say its sold
scorge01
15-04-13, 11:12 PM
Exactly my thoughts knew someone else was coming after us but when we arrived he said it was the other guys for full asking price so not sure what the scrypt was pissed off tho as wanted it.lol

Probably in the hope he offered more than the guy coming with the trailer.

Was a pity mate but it wasn't worth full price bud, could have had it for full price before he took it to meet the Peterhead guy, i wouldnt hae paid that price tho and im sure you wouldn't have either, I will take a look at the white one thru them week see if that's any better
