We are very pleased to offer this very nice Golf GTi with the 1.8 engine and 5-door body, a great combination. The Golf is finished in Mars red with the GTi cloth trim and is sat on the Pirelli alloy wheels, a very desirable colour and specification. It was supplied new to its first owner on 5/3/1996 making it 38 years old, amazing really when you think about the lifespan the Golf has had. The condition is equally as good, we can never tell you it’s perfect but it’s very impressive. It is incredibly clean both inside and out, in fact the interior defies its age as does the attention to detail in the boot area and under the bonnet. You can really see how well this Golf has been cherished by its owners, of which there have only been 3 previous, which is a very low ownership for a car of this age.
The service history is amazing - there are lots of invoices and receipts going back over many years, possibly from the very beginning of its life. This is backed up with a great selection of old MOTs and even tax discs, giving you an insight into how well it has been cherished. The current MOT is valid until June 2026, and its previous MOT history is also very good. All this is backed up with its original service book, containing 20 stamps, along with its full book pack and folder. It even goes as far as coming with sales invoices when it was sold by the Volkswagen dealer and still wears its dealer plates, lovely! And it goes on, with lots of details from the GTi Owner’s Club, Volkswagen themselves and various magazine articles too.
This really does represent a great opportunity to get yourself a great example of the iconic Golf GTi. Remember this is the car that started it all and changed the world way back when, hence they have such a following which makes them so desirable. This one really has to be seen to be appreciated, hopefully you will agree with us about how good it is. This Golf is estimated attractively, so be quick before somebody else sees the beauty in this GTi.
