EXTERIOR
This stunning and surely unrepeatable example has been cherished from new, and with a mere 27k miles on the clock it’s also one of the cleanest Mk1 Golfs we’ve seen. The timeless Alpine White paintwork appears almost entirely unmarked, with a bright and uniform shine across every panel. The bumpers, wheel arch extensions, and rubbing strips are all in excellent, scuff-free condition, and the factory ‘Clipper’ decals are still present and correct. Up top, the electric-folding hood is absolutely pristine with no damage, rips, or unsightly creases. With a super clean underside and the original supplying dealer number plates still fitted, this beautifully preserved example is one for a true enthusiast.
INTERIOR
The classic Mk1 cabin appears fresh throughout. The unmarked sports seats are in first rate condition with no wear to report, even to commonly worn areas such as the driver’s bolster. The pristine cloth upholstery presents with a delightful multicoloured weave on close inspection, this fabric extending to the door and side panels, again all completely unscathed. The white headlining is entirely mark-free, the dash fascia is perfect, and all controls work just as they should, including the electric-folding hood. In the front footwells the carpets are protected by a set of rubber VW overmats. Truly time warp in every respect, this magnificent example looks every bit the low mileage of 27k.
ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION
The peppy 1. 8 produces 90hp and is still lovely and smooth, giving excellent and reliable performance along the way. Equipped with the desirable manual gearbox it’s a hugely enjoyable car to drive. The cambelt has very recently been replaced and since arriving at 4 Star the car has been fully inspected and freshly serviced ready for the new keeper to enjoy. The workshop were particularly impressed with the outstanding condition of the engine bay and underside, the car clearly having been properly garaged all its life.
WHEELS, TYRES AND BRAKES
The Clipper sits on 15-inch ‘Le Castellet’ forged alloys, each with a striking polished finish. The wheels are wrapped in a matching set of tyres, all with at least 6mm of tread remaining. The brakes have also been checked and are in fine operational condition. In fact, the current owner has had the front discs, pads, rear drums and shoes all replaced within the last few hundred miles.
HISTORY FILE
The fantastic little Golf was first registered in November 1992. It was supplied new by Sinclair Garages Volkswagen in Swansea; pleasingly the original dealer window sticker and number plates are all still present with the car. It remained a one-owner example right up until 2017 when it was purchased by the current keeper.
Within the History File you’ll find the original VW document pack complete with all owner’s manuals, the stamped service booklet, a raft of invoices, past MOT certificates, and the spare key. The car has just been serviced and fully inspected for the new keeper’s peace of mind. Additionally, brilliant parts availability, owners club support, and mechanical simplicity offer worry-free classic car motoring allowing the next owner to concentrate solely on enjoyment.
