Offer on the 16v.

[doubt at inwave.com (Nate Mellom)]

I concur.  I like my 16v, don't get me wrong (especially more than my 
old '84 8v, the body kit adds SO much character to the lines of that 
car), but my '81 holds a special place near and dear to my heart. 
Especially at Cincy, while there are some VERY nice Mk2s on display, I 
am always drawn to the minty fresh Mk1s of such listers as Brian Page, 
Ben Harder and Ol' Blue.  Give me a well done, slightly lowered S on 
some nice rims, and I'll be a happy camper.

Nate
'81 (rusty, leaky and pretty much crappy looking)
'88 (low and NOT stealth)
