As the 90s dawned, Volkswagen’s much-loved Mk2 Golf was showing its age; amongst Ford’s ever-evolving Escort and hit after hit from Peugeot, the Golf looked dated. 1991 saw the release of the Golf 3 and where the second-generation car evolved the original formula, the new car really was new – more spacious, yet merely four inches longer and a single inch wider, the Mk3 demonstrated effective packing and featured a much larger interior in an identical wheelbase to its predecessor.
Originally bought by Mr Japp, this 115hp GTi has a comprehensive service history and was laid up in 2020. It was then owned by Mr Hirst of Wakefield who has kept all of his receipts for works undertaken and the the latest owner, Mrs Hughes of Thirsk bought it in 2020 but did not use it.
Sold with the V5C, old MOT's service book with 15 stamps, large folder of receipts for services and repairs and two keys.
