Hello I'm Johan and recently joined the awesome forum, thanks to Ryan (Jetta2) !
I'm from Pretoria and been a MK2 fan for many years in 1987 my dad bought a 1800 CSX brand new out of the box and it would have been 24 years this 26th of Feb but as life has it and living in SA the car was forcibly donated to wealth distribution. :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang: only for it to get written off 20/30 minutes later against the side of a bus...
here was she in her prime....
to look like this after many year and saying good bye with lots of tears...
I went to the UK between 2003-2005 and bought me this car
a 1992 GL Golf MK2 but had to sell her before returning to South Africa
In 2009 I got this car for a bargain great running condition 287000 km on the clock (270 000 km import 1800 installed)
I'm in the redoing stage of the car with the ICE already done and a couple more interior things that will be sorted as we go along.
This year I'm aiming to get the bodywork done and also 2l Ady installed ( turbo'ed )
but before then i'll convert my 1.8 to a Fuel injected NA motor
