its not just the easy way, its the sensible way.
You will have a 1.4 MkIII golf with a Diesel conversion
Just buy a diesel golf.
I really dont see the point unless you dont get Td mkIII's or something?

TBH with the price you can pick up mk4 gttdi's for i wouldnt even consider a conversion, ok it might need a couple of things doing to it but it will be a better car.
