Title: How many ORIGINAL/UNMOLESTED G40's are actually left then??
Post by: G40Valverpaul on May 27, 2009, 05:17:46 PM
Just reading about another G40 biting the dust and how many are left these days!! :o
So how many do we think are out there in TOTALLY standard spec?? ???
Although I say it myself my G40 is very tidy (allbeit after and hit of paint and a few hundred quid of replaced bits n bobs and freshly re-furbed wheels), I just wondered if there are any others out there?? ;)

Mine is completely standard apart from a decat pipe (genuine VW part), 185/60's, and the original tape player has been replaced (with another tape player). I bought another G40 to modify and when I sold that I made sure all the tuning bits went with it so I wouldn't be tempted to molest the original one.
