Once you replace the nasty original carb with the Webber twin choke (something you have to do if you want to keep it) its just a brilliant driving experience. built to last and 30 years after th Mk1 went on sale it still looks good. its never going to be an everyday car but for sunny summer sundays its perfect

The preformance lacks. Low HP, decent torque though. Braking is okay too. Handling is great though. The car is built solid. Unibody frame makes it a great first car to wreck. The only complaint is the leaky top. One of a kind car. Everyone knows my car. The gas mileage is good enough to justify parking in the "Fuel Efficient" parking at Best Buy. Fun car though.

my catylitic converter is rumbling and makes a rattling noise during acceleration, my clutch slips and it whines in reverse. i paid 1500 for the car( a jip i know) and 1700 in repairs. its a convertible that has a little torque to it, looks like a new car now that ive buffed it, going to run strong once i get the clutch in, all in all, i hate car repairs and costs in general, but on the distant bright side, they're alot of fun:)

Beutiful car, k jet 8v quicker than the digifant in the mk2. A car with alot of character. Just wallows a bit. Takes larger engines from newer models.
