I'm tempted to buy a decent mk2 180 or diesel as an interim car until such time I can afford something more suitable. So if anyone knows of one say up to £1.5k within reasonable distance from me down near Portsmouth let me know as I don't do faceache.

Too much for me.

As it happens my 1st interview went very well, got a second tomorrow morning so will hang fire until xmas eve as will know by then. If positive then my plans will change as my budget will change which means a different car ;)

In what way? Can't be worse than mine! What's the asking price out of interest?

Better than a v6, its not that thirsty at all. Its just the 75/zt 1.8 turbo with a z&f standard remap which gives 200bhp and 270nm torque.

Yep, they were from an ignition blue mk2 then into the typhoon, back into the mk2 then into my green mk2 and now in the turbo.

I was curious why these are one off? Strange how they call them black when it's more dark grey on the alcantara.

In the flesh they are a lot more black. One offs because no one has ever seen another true set, some have been dyed and there are loads for the zt.

As far as I know it from when I got the car at 11 months old. Mine has the black oak dash too. Didn't know these seats are as rare as this.
