Hey all!

So I'm a newbie to the forum, been stalking for a while.

I owned a China phase 3 gti6 around 9 years ago, I've never lost the urge to own another.

I started looking again just after Xmas. I've lost out on a few on eBay, ( had a pop at the rallye which went for £1100) 😮
Yesterday I travelled 170 miles to buy a black 6 from Milton Keynes, which we had made a deal on. Only to get 5 minutes from his house when I recieved a txt informing me that he had already sold it! His excuse was he couldn't be sure whether I was going to show or not. Maybe the various txt and phone calls I had made that day to him wasn't clear enough!
Anyway I wasn't angry too much.... Honest.
I think Someone just made him a better deal.

Anyway I'm after somthing fairly cheap, got big plans for it.

Full restoration,
Stage 2 and lots of lightened and balanced goodies,

Pm me if you've got anything, an engine would do for now so I can start the rebuild.

Cheers everyone

Had low compression in cylinder 1. Pulled the lump and can only assume it's the bottom end as head seems fine. Some minor scoring to the bore so would benifit from a bore, hone and deck and some 86.5 pistons or oversize rings.

Fire arse? I think that's what we called flaming assholes...a piece of bog roll, one end shoved up each other's arse and lit in the middle to see who moves first, such good times. I was referring to the title "crow" which refers to new blokes.
