Hello people to add to my long list of random questions I ask of you GTi gods, heres another one... Am travelling to Germany and Austria in May for worthersee and some general tourist type stuff. I would like to pick up a cheap mk2 rally while over there to bring back home. Any recommendations on where to start looking or my chances? The reason I ask is I won't have heaps of time when I get there. Cheers
I have been looking and I dont really think cheap Rallyes exist anymore. A lot of them are in the uk now. I bought mine from Holland back in 2000 for just over 4000. The strength of the euro isnt helping either.
are you really sure you want a cheap one ? alot of em are rusted to hell now , maybe you dont get to see rotten cars like we do and dont realise..but im talking serious holes and lots of welding etc , but why import a heap then spend $$$$$ having it patched up , and panels are hard to come by now id look on ebay.de and mobil.de
I do want a cheap one, rust isn't an issue, the more the better. I only want it for the floor panels and syncro gear. The reason I thought it better to get a complete car was that it would have all the parts that would be annoying to find, like fuel tank etc etc. Unless anyone can advise me where I can find a "complete mk2 syncro" conversion from?

awesome, thanks for the info guys, keep them coming. They do seem a bit pricey. Can you bolt an audi tt box and rear diff straight into a rallye? or with minimal mods? HA ha that orange 4 grand one comes with a free front to rear strut brace! Looks a bit dodgey
