FROIUGHONTOINOI, I hate webmail!
I have another 16V I decided to part, and the body is ending up with a lister here in October. I had two Mk1s I sold to Mk1 Mark (the best of both anyways). So literally speaking, I still had one, most of one anyways...

PS-- *Ducking and Running* But I prefer the lightness of the GTIs... Don't hate me! :-)
