1992 Volkswagen Golf GTI 16S

Put the kettle on because this will be a long read.

Tornado red, the colour of speed as Jeremy Clarkson would say. This is my track car, which has performed flawlessly, occasionally taking part in MSA Sprints too for which it is well suited for the class specification and can be simply drove to the event, competed in and drove home. Nothing beats cruising down the country roads listening to Smooth FM and letting the beautiful KR sing, you'll need good grip though because that Quaife diff makes you work. Steering wheel not included in sale, friend lent me it, seems to have made itself at home for the past year in my golf..

The shell is very clean, has had all the usual much needed repairs, inside fuel cap, scuttle, battery area etc. Almost all original paint too apart from scuttle, bonnet has tiny imperfections where it has been buffed in the past (show winning car at one point). Small dent near fuel filler cap, nearside wing got attracted to a tyre barrier once at which it kissed lightly, along with lower half of nearside door. Probably wants pads+tyres at some point too depending on how much of a savage you are.

I have a folder full of stacks of invoices for most of the mentioned above, including the gearbox/ diff. I would call it full service history too. Numerous spare keys including the cool GTi one, because 90s Volkswagen.

Really don't want to sell, but losing access to my small storage/ garage, don't want to pay the extortionate rates now local to me and have no where to store it alternatively.

Any enquiries and viewings are welcome, remember to bring a van.

Dog not included in sale.
