Quite rare to find them un-modified like that too. |

There you go....Does anybody know what color this is?  Yeah, I'm loving those lights too. I suppose they just welded some extra metal on to the tail gate? |

I have a mk3 tdi which is stubbornly refusing to die. Yesterday I got waved at by another mk3, which I thought was quite a sign of the times considering that they would have been on of the most common cars in the road a few years ago.

20 years ago I detested Mk3's along with E36's, wouldn't have even considered one as I was all Mk2's and E30's but as they, (and I), have aged I think they look great. Still prefer a Mk2 tho

"My latest purchase, short T&T and destined to be ripped apart and transplanted into a Mk2."
And this seems to be how a lot of MK3's have lost their lives, as donors for Mk1/Mk2 Golfs, and the diesels have gone into T25s and their ilk!
I must admit though, the 3-door Golf *could* have the best side profile of any of the Golfs! The proportions do look spot on imho.
After having a death-trap Mk3 GTI I'm not looking for another MK3, but a Mk4 could well be on the cards as I think VW nailed it there.

Here's my MK3 estate. Just done a load of work to it, but being the 1.8 petrol it's a bit slow for me. Chucking her through an MOT soon then trying to find something different. proper clean for its age  |

My old Mk3 8v GTI. One of the nicest all-round cars I've had the pleasure of driving. Wasn't the fastest, was a bit wallowy, but overall it was really pleasant. Sold it in 2009. Apparently it's on SORN so someone's got it as a project or they've turned it into a track car. Wonder what it looks like now?  |

So I found this thread after having a look around. I see it's been a while since anyone posted on it. So here's our contribution. My daily 1.4 with scrapyard bits(well there was a GTi in and the parts were cheap). The green one belongs to the OH. A 1999 1.8 Auto with under 80K on it and no frills at all apart from a driver's air bag and electric windows.   |

I looked for a MK3 wagon here in the Netherlands but they seem to have gotten quite rare in the last few years. There were none for sale in NL, and even in Germany they listed only a few.
My guess is that most went to Africa.
A shame really as i much prefer them to the mk4.
