R32 Replica....its good, just not 100%!

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=9873&item=4538524087&rd=1

The only reason im finding differences is because the item is quoted as being an "identical replica"....

1.Chrome handbrake button.

2.Low spec stereo with storage caddy.

3.Votex rear roof spoiler (incorrectly listed as R32 spoiler).

4.Brakes and Caliper colour.

6.Number plate is too old. (a private plate is needed!)

7.Steering wheel stitch does not match the gear knob stitch.

8.No mention of R32 instrument cluster.

9.No R32 interior vents.

10.Rubber mats!!!

Anyone else find any more differences? Its really a good attempt at a replica and I think most people would be easily fooled. However it doesnt look to be the cleanest inside! [B)]

Yep it's missing 2 cylinders and about 60BHP!

 

[whiteboy]

Actually could be 90BHP missing, think thats a 150BHP GTi??

Whats a GENUWINE reason for sale?

 

[whiteboy]

Sorry to be a post whore but i don't think GTi's have 4 wheel drive either or am i being picky now????

Did the R32 come with aero rear wiper?

Good effort, wonder if he has R32/Bora vents?

Interior looks a bit dirty though.

Looks a bit scrotty inside to, you would have thought he could have removed all his rubish and at least hoovered it out for the photos. Looks like a bird table around the gear knob!

 

[Sem]

Also, the cubby hole is upside down!

Sem you beat me to it, must be us anni owners being a bit fussy about smart interiors. Thats a pee poor effort tho for a car thats up for sale!

 

[whiteboy]

Hasn't got Rain Sensing Wipers???

 

[Royster]

It has a rubber coin tray! git[]

 

[leetdi22]

is that oil leaking out from under the car ?

 

[SEPaul]

I see the rear wiper is parked on the left - what's that about, then?

And the front ones are windOWscreen wipers.

 

[matt747]

It mentions R32 wipers and mirrors; I thought wipers were standard on all Golfs? The mirrors look standard; did R32 have a different type?

 

[EstorilBlue]

by "R32 wipers" I think he means the later style VW Aero wipers, and by "R32 mirrors" he means the slightly shorter 'stubby' wingmirrors.
