She doesnt want to leave me.

Ive loved every minuit of my mk1. Ive had it three years and its been the best car iver ever owned. Ive had the mk2 urge for a good while now and the the mk1 "was" sold and I was going to drop it of tonight.

On the way home from work the passenger electric window packed up (window down).
Not the motor, not the switch or the fuse

Pulled up at the lights and the engine cut out. Did this all the way home.
cleaned the iacv and its now yo-yo reving. Not the mk1's fault I swaped over the mani complete with the Tb.

Then the battery died.

I give up, she doesnt want to leave me, despite robbing it of all the extras ive bought it over the last three years as well as a few of its factory options.

Track car, if you sell her, the new owner will be beating your door down saying, "nothing works, give me my money back".

Best of both world Mk1 for the track, Mk2 for the drive to work and weekend car!!!!

Keep them both, you know it makes sense!!!

I wonder if replacing the battery would fix the other problems?
