I think that ford built those P100 sierra based pick ups in South Africa did they not cos they didn`t last too long in this country what with the rust. So maybe the build quality ,durability would maybe an issue with them.
like em,saw 1 at inters 2001,anyone wanna try buying one new and stitching a repir rear quarter panel on from a uk 2 door car? just let me know how you get on ill get me coat
They only stopped making the original beetle last year remember. If it does what its designed to do why change it?
They were making the beetle's in Mexico until not all that long ago. South Africa VAG was the only place that made Mk1, mk2 and mk3 golfs all at the same time.
yummy pics,info. Anyway i work with a guy in the UK who owns a vw garage in SA capetown area & he's going back soon but im getting all his contact info off him......he says that the rhd citi golf has the brake servo on the same side as the pedals not like us with german rhd cars, if so is the engine layout the same as ours or is it mirrored so there is space where my rocker cover etc would be (if that makes sense)? I need a close up pic of the engine bay in the rhd to give me some possible transplant idea's of citi parts into our rhd golf's. Edited by: fthaimike
