[200q20v] '89 100 BTDT wanted...

[Joseph Vanzeipel]

My brother owns a 1990 100.  Auto, no AC, sketchy electrical, all the
"goodies."  It's a good car, but nothing to get excited about unless you are
used to 50hp diesel golfs.  I really don't like the Auto trans, seems to
really rob the car of high rev torque.  Not too bad of a car though.
