1982 MK1 Golf GTI For Sale

MK1 Golf GTI in Mars Red, I completely restored this car in 2007 with the help of a friend who specialised in classics, many new panels, along with a doner shell, no expense was spared. The engine and gearbox were overhauled and still runs perfectly well. The original interior was professionally cleaned and re fitted and still looks very good considering it's 38 years old but it's not perfect, there is a tiny tear/ frey on the rear seat about the size if a 1p coin.
The suspension was all replaced with uprated springs which lower the cars stance by 20mm, along with uprated anti roll bars and lower strut braces, upgraded brake pipes and braided hoses for a better feel, and so the list would go on.
The car has been used less and less over the past few years just sitting covered in the garage as I simply don't have the time to enjoy and drive it, as a result it's just lost it's edge. I have just spent a couple of weekends getting it washed & polished, MOT'd, re-detailed the engine and it's almost there.
1 bad point is there is an area of paint on the scuttle which has blown, it's the size of a playing card, I think I have some of the original paint the car was painted in, so repair by a professional is relatively easy.
Please come and look and satisfy yourself, it's gorgeous.
