Hold the freakin phone.... You scrapped a pre-facelift GTI? D:
Well... That's... annoying to say the least
I'd still never sell mine! Why would you do such a horrible thing!
Just kidding, when they're not worth it anymore, I guess you should really just sell /scrap it... Personally, I'd never do that
Recently looked up what is allowed as for engine mods, best engine I can go for without needing a new test thingy would be a 1.8 8v... I'm pretty sure that's... Not half-bad
And to stay on-topic
You know you have a mk2 when you go for it's MOT, thinking nothing can go wrong apart from the rear wheels being in need of new tires.
Then it decides to go all CO2 on that *beeeep* and 'actually' fail the MOT with too high emisions(I did forget to get the engine nice and hot before I went there, but oh well..)
....
BUT what would only happen to a
mk2 Ibiza:
When I asked the guy if it passed or not, he said: 'well... It shouldn't actually pass, cause it failed the emisions.. just. But it only barely failed emisions, and I can clearly see you've spent a lot of time on a cheap old car to get it to look good, the rest was perfect, nothing wrong, so it would be kinda mean to fail it on something that's probably just a rather cold motor or dirty oil , so I'll give it the benefit of the doubt and pass it'
Am I a lucky bugger or not?
Having the oil replaced + new air filter + new fuel filter as soon as possible though, and 2 new tires again!
