1991 Volkswagen-Golf-GTI-Mk2-One of a Kind For Sale

Golf GTI Mk2 Big Bumper
1990
MOT Until: 16/ 04/ 2020


Welcome to the sale of my Mk2 golf GTI big bumper. This is no normal Mk2 golf, having been extensively restored, maintained and modified. As far as I am aware this is the only Mk2 golf running this configuration and setup. I purchased the car just over two years ago. Just prior to the purchase of this GTI , the car, was fully resprayed in this stunning colour so the paint is only 3 years old. I then used the car as a daily driver for a year before taking it off the road for a full engine rebuild and fast road tune as well as a large mechanical overhaul of the brake and suspension setup. Since this period the car has only done roughly 300 miles and is still in its run in period, as it has only been used for special occasions. The car comes with a comprehensive history including dealer service history up to 122, 000 miles. Since then it has done just under 50, 000 miles and been serviced privately. It also comes with all the original manuals, dealership booklets and service booklets.

Listed below are details of all works completed on the car to date:

Brakes and suspension:
fully refurbished front Callipers with with new seals and calliper guide slider kit
Brand New rear Callipers
New dimpled, vented and cross drilled front discs
New dimpled and vented rear discs
Brand new front and rear wheel bearings.
Mintex Pads all round.
New Direnza adjustable coilovers
Brand new 20mm spacers
Stainless steel front strut brace

Engine Modifications and exhaust:
2litre Audi 80 bottom end
Stage 3 cylinder head, gas flowed, 42mm inlet valves, 35mm exhaust valves, ported and polished, port matched to inlet and exhaust manifolds.
Brand new 285 Piper ultra-fast road camshaft
New Hydraulic Tapets
Duplex valve springs
New seals, gaskets and core plugs.
Stainless 4-1 branch equal length manifold, ported
Milltek Downpipe back exhaust system
New distributor and distributor cap
New spark plugs
New leads
Engine dress up bolts
New intake filter
New oil filter
New belts
New oil pump
New water and intake pipes
Drivetrain:
Two new uprated, solid driveshafts
Overhaul of gearbox linkage with new bushes
Sachs Clutch
Interior:

The interior remains standard and well kept. There is slight wear to the base of the drivers seat. The headliner was also replaced just before my purchase and remains in excellent condition. The original stereo system has been replaced by an aftermarket headunit with spotify/ bluetooth capability as well as an Aux cable and usb cable. The previous owner also installed a separate power usb port in the dashboard, off the ignition. This is situated inside a blank button and is useful for charging phones. All the interior speakers have been replaced by new alpine units.
The car also features a high-end immobiliser and power locks with two key fobs and keys as well as motion sensors that can trigger the alarm and immobiliser.
Stainless momo pedals also replace the standard rubber ones and new VW official Matts installed.

There are a few minor issues:
The rear parcel shelf has two holes where large speakers once sat.
The car passed its MOT with one advisory which was a chip in the windscreen. The chip has been there for over a year now and does not need immediate attention.
When driving the rev counter can sometimes drop. I presume this is a loose connection at the back of the cluster.

As well as these modifications, the car now runs off a Megasquirt 2 ECU, controlling the fuel and spark, mapped via the Audi throttle body which replaced the golf throttle body. This ECU includes the options for launch control, not used currently, as well as an easy conversion to coil packs rather than the dizzy set up if wished. I have not had the car on a dino but with these modifications and based on other builds, a hp figure of 160 would be my estimate. The rev limiter has also been moved up by the ECU to just under 7000rpm.

Included in the price are lots of spare parts:
Spare 1. 8litre bottom end
Audi cylinder head
Audi intake manifold
Set of lowered springs
Standard rear shocks
Spare callipers
Two distributors
Audi rocker cover
Two oil cooler hangers
New exhaust gasket
Pod filter
Spare driveshafts
Brand new Short Shifter Kit
New calliper seals
Standard exhaust down pipes

This is a great useable classic car that only gets love wherever it goes. I have spent over £10, 000 on this car and will truly miss it. The reason for sale is that I currently have two cars but will soon be getting a company car so I have decided to sell both my cars and get something classic and less practical with the combined money.
Sensible offers consider and price negotiable around the inclusion of spare parts etc. Message me for more pictures and any questions.
P/ X considered for something interesting and classic.
Many thanks.
