I heard that on the early models the parachute was just an optional extra until some owners experienced death while exiting their polo.

Ah I see. They're definitely about mate. You get them popping up on pistonheads and edition38 all the time. You'll pay for them though!

I want one in my life! :D Always liked mk2 golfs but id rather have a garage to store one in and keep it in the condition it should be kept. How much do you ...

Market is poo at the minute.

Been looking at CTR's as a replacement for the olop and I'm finding identical spec cars that were going for 11/12k at the start of the year being sold for 9/9.5k

Great if you're a buyer but turd if you're selling.

That's all I use as well.

Covers most of the stuff you will ever need to tinker on with.

Haynes do not actually produce a manual covering the GTi model.
