The paintwork is well clean on it, one supermarket style door ding but not much to sort out and its only tiny.

How much did you pay if you don't mind me asking?

Are these 1.8s?

£2400 - Its the 1.8T Sport.

The book price for this motor was £2750 (or at least the Glasses guide) Doesnt mean much though nowadays.

Goes well in the lanes too - its only got a small turbo in it but due to that, it winds up really quickly and in third it pulls from about 2000RPM.

I see a couple of 5 door 1.6/1.8 but no 1.8T Sports around my way and certainly no 3dr

I'm currently averaging 42.2mpg; thats over the last 10 weeks as well - its a competition to get it as high as possible.

most I've had out of a tank is 490miles over 16hours of driving!

I'm liking the chequed interior in yours though; mines just black cloth; the facelift lamps make a difference if you can get a set cheap enough

Mines an S Plate - late 1998.

Like you said though Lee - the paint comes up really well, a few more layers of wax and it should be a beaut. Bumper should be done tomorrow and back on on Thursday hopefully. The interior is quite nice, I got a rattle from the glove box that has to go though
