The Mk1 Golf was lovely.
That hideous modified Punto (I assume that is the one you mean) may have had connections with Swindon. We only had it for a short while, we swapped it in Broadstairs, Kent and got rid of it in Guildford.
I don't know where it went from there, but a few months later I got a letter from the Police in the post saying that the car had been in a hit and run and they were trying to trace the owner.
It had a Twin Centre exhaust (very loud) and most of the rear bumper was full of unsanded, unpainted filler.... Does that ring any bells?

It might have been. The filler that was in the rear bumper when we had it was just like household stuff!
But it may have had more work done on it!
Planning to keep the GTi, but we have planned to keep preety much every car we have owned! We have never spent as much money modifying a car as we have done with this GTi, so who knows!

Oh, the irony!
Own it outright now then...
We have brought 3 times on HP, each car has been faulty and had to be returned. Wouldn't buy from a car dealer again!
I know what you are saying about dis-honest eBay sellers though. It is so annoying to buy something, having it turn up and be useless, then you try to claim on Paypal, and they take no notice
