My brother's GTI was stolen on the night of 6th/7th August from outside his house in Dublin, Ireland (near Blackhorse Ave./Phoenix Park, Dublin 7). So far, it hasn't shown up burnt out, or being raced by kids, etc, so we reckon that it was taken for parts If any of the Irish members here see it, can they let the Gardai know where it was seen. Because the market for Mk1 parts is so small here, you UK-based guys might see it (or parts of it): > 1983 Lhasa Green GTI w/steel sunroof - reg no. MSI 426 > G60 engine, loud stainless steel exhaust > 15" steel rims from G60 > Driver's seat black leather and suede Recaro from Golf Rallye, > passenger seat original GTI item, no rear seats fitted No GTI wheel > arch trims, side stripes, or black rear-window surround Rear tailgate > de-badged and de-locked, but has nasty dent from a heavy item falling on it, near the wiper (behind the boy's head in the photo below). He's pretty browned-off about it, because he's done a lot to it, and has owned it since 1991 Contact Steve Wallis (username: Type 17) Edited by: Trev16v
so what was the score, was it abandoned somewhere or in a lock up or what? glad you got it back mate.
