| Planning on getting this: Its a Skoda 130 (5speed), been sitting idle for 3 months, engine did run then, rust on panels and frame seems ok, interior in good condition as well, seats could do with a clean. Window is there in that pic, plastics there in case it rains suddenly. | |

| Buy it and stick it on ebay.
Believe it or not Skodas are actually become quite collectable, and the rally boys are wanting them too. Especially the Rapids. | |

my corsa diesel looks pimp on D90s, doesn`t mean its good. for a classic car enthusiast yes a good start for a collection, but to "scene" i dunno really if this is a move as a dub enthusiast they were not part of the group when this model was built so i doubt you would be allowed access to a VW showfield - a few technicalities i know but you know how anal these show types are. as said above if this is your personal direction yes, but if your thinking along the scene direction id say no. | |

Dont touch the body, deck it on nice rims, decent powerplant and it'd be a winner !
Hoodride style ! | |

| ^^^he see's the idea. hahaha
If i do get it then i wont be paying more than £50 as its not worth that in scrap.
Interior is in light beige, no holes, tears or burns. As for the wheels all 4 are in ok nick plus it has even has the spare there the same PCD as the old beetles but not as scene so not many beetle owners use them.
As far as engine mods go, Weber DCOE / Dellorto DHLA carbs, etc. but the engine has had a new carb but had running issues when it stopped being used, so a rebuild would be needed. | |
