i know its not a mk2 but i have a mint mk1 no rust never been welded in its life on a d reg and waiting for a 20 16v to be rehomed pictures to follow very soon.
prob with minters is knowing where to look and spending time poking about them before parting eith the cash.
As I found out today though there can be hidden horrors. Under seal and sound deadening can hide a host of nightmares!
