I think it's the only "old" car I'd ever buy.
Insurance would probably be a killer tho but I really want one some day...

Thing is with older VW lumps is they actaully perform better when they get to about 100,000 miles. So that engines not reached its peak yet

Friend had a GTi. Very smooth, very fast revving, handled great.

Very nice little cars!! The official "hot hatch" starters!
