1990 Mk2 Golf gti 3 door 105k miles SOLD

This is my once cherished 1990 mk2 golf gti 8v digifant.

What can i say, these cars are just amazing. Loads of fun retro performance, makes you feel like your going fast even tho your not!! I've had this car for 6 years and when using it its just one of the greatest cars out there for fun . Awesome looks reasonable performance, not bad fuel consumption and a practical usable classic that is appreciating anually.

This car has a genuine 105, 000 miles with very good history including all mots from 2000 when it had done just over 40k up to the present day. It has the 1. 8 8valve digifant injection engine believed by many including myself to be one of the best engines fitted to these cars. Very sprightly sounds awesome, had a full service including timing belt and tensioner, all fluids and coolant less than 1000 miles ago.

i had the car 6 years ago after it had been dry stored for 5 years in a garage. To recommision it it had, handbrake cables, discs and pads all round (front are cross drilled and vented) all water flanges and coolant steel pipes, a full set of brand new toyo proxy tryes where fitted 2 years go along with a full set of coil overs and german top strut mounts (i have all of the suspension components kept that i removed so you could put it back to standard. It also had a new fuel pump, heater matrix, regular oil and filter change (3000 miles) and has been waxed regularly to keep it in good shape. Just had new rear caliper and some new brake hoses for the fresh mot.

The car starts and drives really well, it is lowered via the coil overs which are adjustable either up or down more, i have it set quite low but not floor smashingly low and i must admit the ride is very firm, i like it like that but im used to much lower cars than this, and of course with the new tyres it handles like its on rails.

The body of the car is really very good. Ive had quite a few mk2 golfs and most of them these days need a resto. This car has been looked after and although not perfect its really good. Metal work wise it has a couple of minor scabs, that have been there since i had it and not got any worse. (i can show you pictures of the car when i got it to prove it) as i have kept the car anchor waxed to try and preserve it. The paint isnt the greatest, it has been polished through to the white from years of love, theres a little bit of laquer peel on the rear quarter and side panels but when waxed it looks pretty smart and i quite like the worn appearence. Underneath is in good shape and has been waxed annually. As its a 1990 model it has the original big bumpers, and foglights all working fine. No cental locking, no power steering, and manual keep fit wind up windows, all working fine as is the manual sunroof.

Interior is very original, minor bolster wear on drivers seat, the rest of the seats are in great condition. The rear seat was removed and put into storage for many years and is like new. The headliner is starting to droop a little at the rear, it has litterally just started, these can be replaced or repaired easily enough.

Its just a shame i dont get to use it as much as id like to and with 2 kids i struggle a bit with the 3 doors

A not perfect, but very very good car. A definate investment piece tht you can have an absolute ball cruising arpund in. Ive priced it to reflect that its a great but not perfect car.

Viewing available by appointment in Warwickshire, midlands, CV34
