EXTERIOR
This rare ‘Edition One’ G60 looks great in desirable Dark Burgundy Pearl (Aubergine), the paintwork still presenting to an excellent standard throughout - our studio photos really don’t do it justice! Looking closer the body appears very straight indeed, with even shut lines and a deep, uniform colour across every panel. There are no unsightly dents or scratches to report, the only area that could benefit from some light cosmetic attention being a small blemish on the offside front wing. An expected light dusting of stone chips is also visible at the front end, further evidencing the car’s honesty.
Aubergine is one of only three colours that were available to the Edition One, and it may very well be the rarest. Other special and unique ‘Edition One’ features to note are the wider wheel arch flares, “Wolfsburg Edition” emblems, white front indicators, partially tinted rear lights, body-coloured mirror casings, black rear VW badge, and the all-black front grille. Amazingly even the original bonnet decal is still present, although now somewhat faded.
INTERIOR
A G60 Edition One is rare enough, but an Edition One with leather is almost unheard of! The light grey upholstery and carpets are a welcome contrast against the Dark Burgundy paintwork and make for an airier cabin. Sitting inside, the seats are still notably supple and the bolsters maintain excellent shape; the complementing leather door cards also look great with minimal wear to be found. Original Edition One details such as the leather-rimmed steering wheel, leather gear knob and handbrake grip have all worn extremely well, as have the dash and centre console with no damage to report. In the rear the seats appear almost unused, and in the footwells the carpets are protected by a set of tailored overmats. The original data sticker is still inside the boot confirming that it's an original G60.
ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION
The engine bay is wonderfully clean and tidy, a real treat for the enthusiast with no signs of any damage or poor repair. Originally a German-supplied car with stamped VW history until 84k miles, this G60 has been looked after primarily by Jabba Sport since arriving in the UK in 2010. Invoices within the History File show plenty of engine work to have been carried out, including a Stage 4 supercharger rebuild (Jabba Sport certificate present). The clutch has also been replaced within the last few thousand miles.
WHEELS, TYRES AND BRAKES
The G60 sits on two-piece BBS alloys in fine condition. There is no curb marking to be found and the wheels are wrapped in a matching set of 195/ 45 R15 Toyo tyres, as fitted around 800 miles ago. The brakes also appear in fine fettle showing plenty of life left; the brake fluid and two calipers were replaced in 2018.
HISTORY FILE
This rare G60 was first registered in Germany in March 1991. The original service book is still present and is stamped up to 84k miles, all by VW main agents. Since arriving in the UK in 2010 the car has been primarily maintained by marque specialists, Jabba Sport, who have carried out plenty of engine work including a Stage 4 supercharger service and upgrade.
Upon arrival into the UK the KM clocks were replaced with an MPH unit from a 16v GTI. The car was then IVA-tested, MOT’d, and registered for UK road use. The speedo was not reset to zero however the raft of UK documentation within the History File shows the car to have driven less than 7, 500 miles over the last 10 years. It has been carefully dry stored when not in use and the V5C shows just two UK owners. The MOT is valid until June 2021.
