Volkswagen Golf Mk1 GTI Cabriolet

Year of first registration: 1986

Colour: Alpine White

Engine & Gearbox: 1.8 Manual.

Mileage: 130,000.

A very tidy example in its period specification MK1 Golf GTI Cabriolet which has just been recently re-commissioned inside and out including a full respray, new inner and outer hood, new tyres all round, alloys refurbished, full engine re-build including new timing belt kit, spark plugs, injectors, fuel tank, and all fuel lines, front and rear flexi hoses, front wishbones, wheel cylinders and new rubbers. A freshly rebuilt 5-speed manual gearbox. This car drives beautifully and is the perfect classic with all the hard work completed, ready to enjoy the summer weather.

Powered by a fuel-injected 1781cc SOHC four-cylinder engine allied to five-speed manual transmission.

Interior presents very well, no tears in cloth or roof, underneath it is completely solid with no rust or corrosion.

It rides on a set of period-correct 14-inch ‘Snowflake’ diamond-cut and white enamelled alloy wheels.

SUMMARY

This Mk1 Volkswagen Golf GTI Cabriolet is an honest and largely original example of the iconic open-top hatchback, with an appealing factory specification. Having been mechanically restored during the last few years, it is ready to drive and enjoy immediately. The car is always dry stored in a garage.

It is very rare to find an unmodified Mk1 GTI. These original cars are becoming very sought after and are appreciating in value rapidly.

Viewings and test drives are welcome.
