Re: Early Mk2 343 GL £150
Headrest covers in red, must be very rare by now ... I think I have a set in that colour, but in a later style without the four "buttons" in the middle.
"icsi" has the "early type" in his GLS too:

Re: Early Mk2 343 GL £150
hmmm that'd be a bummer if it's an auto. Will have to give the number a ring and enquire as I do like the look of it. Not sure if it'd be right of me buying it and then lowering it and possibly different wheels
(No welded diffs on this one mind
)

Re: Early Mk2 343 GL £150
Why not buy the white one that has 12mths MOT
If it is a manual the red one will only be a 4spd but it's not too hard to change boxes... seem to remember you've done this before anyway!

Re: Early Mk2 343 GL £150
This is only 30 miles up the road from mine - and it's the kind of thing I've been keeping half an eye on for sometime (earlier car - colouful interior etc!)
Dropped him a line, interested to see if it's a Vario or 4spd...also what the rot's like. Valance looks like it's getting a bit grotty, but it's hardly the best picture.
If anyone else hears anything about the car from the seller, please let me know.
