Nothing really has gone wrong with this car since I have acquired it.
I bought the car for seven Irish pounds.
As we speak I am starting the restoration work.
Bodywork cost (estimate) £500.
Doner car (1988 BX GTI) - free.
I fully intend to put this car back to its original condition.
When I first came to see my new investment (it was bought after it was described to me by a friend) it was parked in three foot high grass.
A new battery and two turns of the key later, it started.
Best of luck to you, myself and a friend are also restoring one right now. If you have any queries, don't hesitate... we have become quite knowledgeable about these.
