I had Mk1 RS2000, UNK942M, from 17,000 miles to 71,000 - brilliant car, cost £1285 and sold 1978 for £1200. Bodywork had been Ziebarted but it seems to not be still around. Speaking to owners at car shows it might have been worth £80,000 in pristine condition now...
Current Golf estate is much more powerful and capable, and economical though!
