dturbo. what to do next?
#1
always loved the idea of owning a ph1 dt in white and at the moment im the winning bidder of said car on the bay.
ive emailed the seller with what pump it has and with his reply ive found out it has a lucus.
now if i am the winning bidder and found myself with the car, i want to know what to do with it next.
bosch pump is obviously the first thing but i know nothing about devs so thats why im asking you lot.
done some quick sums and i reckon i can save about £500/£600 in 6 months of runing this over my 1.6.
if im the winner, what are my next steps.

Buy it, service it, bosch it, and tune it.!

Then enjoy cheap miles with more power than your 1.6!

Will be worth it once you have it!

Just remember tax is £118 for 6 months
Mot average price is £50 plus any problems
Then if your getting a bosch ( should already be on a ph1) then that's another £60-100+

Don't rush into buying it!

thought tax was cheaper than that. my mrs has a golf gt dti 150 (1.9) and im sure that its cheaper than that?
as for the pump, well as already said, seller says it has lucus????
mot will be £25 mates rates.

Yeah tax is harsh on these! I'd ask for a picture of the pump because it could well be a Bosch on it! Smile

Looked at this car twice tonight, but really can't afford to buy anything now. And yes, tax is £215/year on these, I should know.

EDIT: Seller's even got my name, damn him!

I'd pay 400 if it has a bosch, 350 without. Remember it's an old car without tax or MOT so that's on top of car price.

Your mrs golf maybe post 2000 so tax is on emissions, where as this old girl is engine size-I just taxed mine which was 220

Honestly? I wouldn't pay much more than £300 for that if it's not a Bosch, I'd pay £400 if it was though, but then I'm after a Bosch pumped car to steal the pump etc from. Other than that, it's a 17yo French diesel with moon miles on it. Seems alright if you can get it cheap enough.

Being a white ph1 I'd pay a bit extra if the bodywork is good because they're a popular/sought after car. £450 would be my bid

this is what im thinking dan. as i say, always wanted one, buy it, mod it, run it and sell it for a profit. or just keep it.
