Anyone seen this, and if you have what do you think about it.

Yeah, they've been importing mk1's for ages. There was one on ebay a couple of weeks ago, 1.3, only went for about Â£550..
I can't see why it wouldn't be a good thing really.. classic golf for people who don't have the time to restore/maintain an actual classic golf.

IMHO its a good thing, if a "new" Golf Mk1 is your thing! It'd make a good base for a project but I'm happy with my Polo

yeh, but no one would buy one because most people are so used to the nasty-horrible euro and jap boxes that are so common now - probably one of the reasons not many citi-golfs are getting sold too, which is a shame really

probably something to do with the decidedly sub-average fuel economy too

more like what a modern 2.0 or 2.5 litre would use.

still pretty cool, i'd have one in Mercato blue and stuff the costs.

and a brand new brazilian/mexican VW camper, to boot.
(an aircooled engine with multipoint injection? they need to lay off the tequila methinks)

Is this a good thing?
