Anybody point me to a good website with info, pics etc... on the G charger?

Many Thanks in advance

No problem, I have the extended set of bolts too.

I am visiting this G40 on saturday, with the intention of purchasing it.

I have a set of 14" Golf Mk1 GTI Alloys - BBS type.

Do these fit the G40, would they cause problems?

Andy

BTW :- She is replacing the car with a brand new Lupo GTI.

She says the brakes are better and it has power steering, she was finding the G40 hard-work.

I have phoned her back, she got the milage a little wrong, it's 87k not 70k as she previously thought.

I am going to take a good look this weekend, and if it's ok, then I'm in the club.... :)

Thanks for the advice, it's going to be very hard to walk away if it is a duffer!!!

Shame there's nobody here lives near poole to come and have a butchers at it with me.

I'm really worried about buying a dud...

Andy

OK, If it's a bargain, maybe I should buy it, just to sell on and make a small profit and make sure it gets into the hands of a polo lover?

After all, from what I can tell, only 500 of these where made, and this one is a peach.

The car is cheap, I suppose...
But I approached her, she is an old woman who I saw parking it at a market one day a few weeks ago, I gave her my car and said if you ever want rid, call me.
Today I get a call, but she wants what I consider top doller...
The bodywork is pretty much mint, the engine ...

I have just been offered a G40 for sale.

One owner from new, 70K - Mk3 G40
FVWSH - Fulll MOT + Tax - Owner wants £1500

She is an oldish lady.

Is this worth it???
