Get some pictures and more details please twatty, maybe it's viable to back on the road?

*Edit: are you sure that's a 17RD, looks too well spec'd to me? Or are you getting confuddled witht the other (eBay) thread where there is an RD, you geriatric goat molester?

A mate has been to see these on my behalf and he said that pretty much all of the cars are scrap and are completely rotten! :x Shame. I seem to remember him saying there was a Black GTi so that could be the one.

I saw this on the links at the bottom, and find it strangely appealing. If I had the money an ace road trip/holiday would be to fly over there and drive the thing back. Oh well, back to reality.

Might even be a similar price to get a budget flight and drive back, which would be more fun in my eyes. Take a couple of mates and make your leisurely way back up Europe, sampling the wines on the way.
In fact, if anyone should want to do such a thing, can I volunteer to help? :D

You really need to buy two piles of shite, so you have a sporting chance of towing whatever expires back home. The problem is when both die en-route...

Sounds like my kind of fun though; I'd be game for it :D

Excellent! All we need to do now is find someone who likes old cars, has lots of money and is easily led...
