its A MARK 4, not AN EM KAY 4... :hitler:
Eric, dont bother defending VWs, nobody will have your back.
I have considered getting my old Jetta back, but its much cooler than yours
its quite possibly the best jetta you can own. a mk1. a coupe. and a turbo diesel. I built the engine on this one nearly 10 years ago and its still going strong. I regretted selling ti but I was broke and in debt. Ive considered getting it again, but I love my E30. The Jetta was fun, but not fun like the E30
you are an idiot for selling that car. that car is rarer than an e30 m3.
I need to drive my e30 more than once a week. Simon, when you are here, come drive her.
here is why i have VW love, user name and email, and a W in Ewic

I also owned a few 1980 Jetta coupes. THOSE are rare... I moved on. They will always hold a special place in my heart much like that first girlfriend who wasn't the sexiest but you occasionally look back and wonder what could've been...Simon

Hey guys,
my ride has been sitting dead outside my work in San Jose for the past two weeks. No fuel, no spark. Checked and all the relays and fuses are good. Checked the fusible link and it was popped. Replaced it with a 50 amp fuse and still not getting a check engine light. Pretty frustrated and think i am just going to get it towed to a shop.
Anyone know of a shop that knows E30s?
Thanks in advance.Comment

here's why. the 318is is trying to be a sports car but isn't, where as the jetta accepts what it is and does it's job. You don't drive an e30 bc it's great mpg, you drive it to have fun. I've driven Steven's, Erfan's and one other guy with a silver one and none of those 3 cars was any better than a stock fwd 2.slow jetta. hell, the best car i've ever been it was a G60 corrado with full cage. it may not be as fast as an s52 e30 but it would easily take almost any e30 at a track, autoX or canyons.Drive it hard. Maintain it well.

Officially in the market for a roof rack; Thule preferred with locks, but will take Yakima if it a good setup
Need something to transport a bike/4 snowboards/a mini-barbecue/kayak
Would like a full setup with board locks, wire basket, single bike tray, but would accept rack and farring alone

I've driven mine to Boulder, CO. Twice. My friends always give me crap for how "unreliable" my car is, but after making it with no problems the first time nobody questioned me when I suggested taking my car for the second trip.
Edit: The first time we went there, we went a scenic route through Death Valley, Moab, and the Grand Canyon totaling to about 2,100 miles.Last edited by YosemiteSam; 12-19-2014, 04:49 PM.sigpicComment
