I have been asked to provide a valuation for Daves GTI Engineering Golf project

& while it is very difficult to value an ongoing & unfinished project

I have suggested a minimum price of 5000 pounds, as to build this today would cost considerably (2 or 3 times more)

& why would you try to replicate this when 20v motors are readily available?

but if you want authenticity & originality then this is for you!

I have been in contact with Charlotte again today, she said that Dave sold the Country a few years back
but the rather special gti engineering Syncro was still available

That looks good, at that price I would just buy it, if it is to long it would be a good candidate to be shortened to the correct length

it will not fit as it is listed for the 2WD Golf 2s

I think it will be a bit longer, taken from here

https://www.cars-data.com/en/volkswagen-golf/front-track-width
the Golf G60 has a track width of 1433 mm

https://www.cars-data.com/en/volkswagen-passat-1-8-107hp-gt-specs/51574
& the Passat G60 is Front Track Width: 1479 mm

And another https://www.ebay.de/itm/296254890554

and another https://www.ebay.de/itm/305420081651

any of these should fit, as long as they are what the seller says they are!

[Chris S]

here is one https://www.ebay.de/itm/265208631391

It might just be worth buying a set to keep as spares, you never know when you might need them (MOT time)

they have not been available for a few years, so who knows what happens when this batch is gone?

[Chris S]

Just sent you a text message

[Chris S]

suitable motors here on ebay

this would put a smile on your face

I have just thought
I have a G60 motorblock with zero lkilometers since being bored out to 2.0 liters
can be fitted with either
an reconditioned 8 valve crossflow head & pistons & decent cam about – 125bhp
or a 2 liter 16v again reconditioned heah & pistons & 16v 2 liter cams about 145

Please let me know if you are interested?

[Chris S]

Any 8 valve golf 2 engine or early golf 3 8 valvers will be an almost direct replacement also look at passat of the era
