Rusty sills.
Make sure the hood is in good nick, and there are no signs of wet inside the car.

Don’t buy it. That’s the best advice.

 

why not? He will look great driving to and from his hair and nail salon in it!

 

I was actually after a shampoo and blow dry. Any chance of a discount?

 

you will have to drive to France you know, and they use garlic shampoo over there.

 

Does the 2003 model come with built-in gaydar, or was that an option?

 

If they're comfortable with their sexuality then go for it....I used to have a Suzuki Samurai soft top and got loads of stick..playing Pet Shop Boys and Erasure very loud didn't help.

P.s. would love one, one of the few vehicles that looks good in beige.

 

thanks setting off now

If it’s a dud I can just stick it in the field with the rest

 

I think my sister has a blue one for sale at present

 

I bet it's not in France or LHD though, or maybe it is and I should keep my beak out.

 

Pretty sure there’s a Dehler on Car and Classic at the mo.

 

Hoods, electric window regs. If it’s early it has the flaps to cover the hood mech and they can be an issue. The hood to glass is meant to be a problem. The sills generally get bashed by bad drivers. 2.0 uses oil. Maf, lambda probes, usually the only engine woes.
But loved my 1999 one. Almost go as far as to say it’s the best car I’ve had. Did about 130k miles in it with only a couple of sensors that needed doing.
Water cooled golf gang don’t like you and air cooled don’t either, so don’t expect scene points!
