If you aren't prepared to travel a reasonable distance, you'll continue looking to the point the values of a good one surpass what you can justify. ________________________________________  |

Camber on the back wheels. A knocking noise at the rear is either a shagged beam or beam mounts usually. Check the engine is not a tapper. This sounds like a noisey lifter that don't quieten down. I normally change the cambelt every 30k or 4 years so check that's up to date.________________________________________ See the sheer power and might of the lesser known burrowing owl. |

A noise lifter? Sorry I'm an idiot lol. Has a new cambelt and wp. New head gasket too. 170k worries me a bit. What is the cost of a replacement rear beam?________________________________________ Platinum gti 6 now the daily driver...1 problem so far...fuel economy! |

Overpriced IMO considering mileage and the dented quarter. Is a trader though. ________________________________________ |
