He says its black,3dr.

TAX & MOT?

Why not wait till/if the 200k gives up before putting the new engine in?

£500 at the very most. All depends on tax and test though.

no tax or mot, its 1989. . . £400 sound ok ?

Dont give £400!!!!!!! Unless it has some rare shit on it or amazing wheels!

probably only worth scrap value with no t&t. Offer him £50 lol.

look for a cheap non runner if your going to stick a nw lump in?

150 - 200 if it's a clean shell maybe a bit more of it has some goodies.

if it's not taxed then i suppose it's not being driven. i usually show interest then leave it a while, then after a bit they'll come back saying they'll accept a cheaper offer to get shot and you're quids in.

yeah about 200 i mean come on its not even a 90 spec lol

Well we dont know for sure about what bumpers he has, if it is a big bumper you can shift them for £50 easy.

was a big bumper model also had compomotive 5 spokes on, managed to get it for 170, drove it 3 miles home. . . doorbell rang and there stood a guy with 300 cash so i sold it to him and bought an almost identical one with 4 months tax and mot untill september for 420 SCORE !

lol so u gained 120 in 3 miles?

if so good on u chap lol :)

£130 and kept the wheels, which will be up for sale soon

What a deal, whats the story with the guy then?

no idea tbh ! hes got a mk2 vr6 and a polo gt which he never drives for some obsurd reason, think he wanted it for spares or something. . . and theres not really many cheep golf's round hear so i guess he thought paying a little extra would be better than having to travel miles for one then trailer it back.
