Relisting again because people keep wasting my time.
Up for sale is my 1982 Mk1 Golf which has a 1. 8t 20v engine conversion

The 1. 8t 20v engine had 82k miles when fitted and is managed by a Qpeng Plug and Play ECU which cost over £1000!
The car has tax till September and it got a new MOT (no advisories at all!) over Easter so about 10 months left

When stripping and rebuilding this car the previous owner installed sound deadening. new carpet. all the brake lines and fuel lines were new. door seals. window seals and boot seal were all new. Bushes. bottom arms. links. mounts etc were all replaced/new.  

The car is using an AGU engine as it has the larger valve ports in the head. meaning more air flow. It is matched to a 5 speed 02j gearbox with a single mass flywheel. and also uses a matching 02j shifter (engine. gearbox and shifter are all from a mk4 golf). Because of this. gear changes are effortless and feel like a much newer car.  

Recently the car has had a new VR6 heavy duty clutch (£100+labour). Continental cambelt and waterpump kit (£220). NGK spark plugs. a new radiator. new oil. filters. coolant etc. I have receipts for everything.

The folder of receipts I have is packed. totaling maybe £10. 00 between the previous owner and I.  

When I got the car. under the bonnet was done to a mediocre standard so I took it to my local performance garage and spent almost £1000 having them do everything properly.  

The car is running about 200-220hp (standard k03 turbo) and as the car is very light this makes for a very fast car. This is certainly not a toy and has embarrassed VXR's. Cupra's. ST's etc. It would be an easy upgrade to the bigger K04 turbo. which would raise power levels to around the 280hp mark but I never felt the need to do this! If you did decide to upgrade then QPENG will remap the ECU free of charge to suit the new parts! (providing they're original VAG items. ie k03s or k04 turbo) 

As well as being quick it's also good on fuel. averaging about 35mpg! 

It does occasionally bog and hesitate. and I am 99% sure this is because the coilpacks are failing. This is a cheap and easy replacement. the parts can be bought easily - it is a common problem on these 20vt engines. Also a few very small cosmetic marks here and there. nothing major or anything that can't be touched up. Note that the passenger side top strut cover will come with the car. it was just removed in that photo.

This car owes me a lot of money and I know I will not get back what I paid but I need something more practical and it seems a shame to just use this for a daily commuter! I have bought a new car now so this needs to go to cover the funds.
Included in the sale will be the spare parts I have: new spark plugs. new seals. body work clips. various boost pipes and hoses. plastic trims. acoustic carpet etc.
Collection will have to be after 20th May as I am currently away at University.
CASH/BANK TRANSFER ON COLLECTION. NO TIME WASTERS OR DREAMERS PLEASE!  A deposit of two hundred pounds must be paid within 48 hours by the buyer to secure the car.
I can get video footage if requested.
Many thanks for reading. happy bidding.
