Description

The Volkswagen Golf Cabriolet Mk1 is one of the most iconic and recognizable versions of the Golf.

Introduced in 1979, the Golf Cabriolet Mk1 was developed in collaboration with Karmann, a historic German coachbuilder. Unlike many convertibles of the time, it had a fully retractable canvas top and, more importantly, the famous fixed central roll-bar, nicknamed the "basket handle."

This feature not only ensured greater safety, but also made the convertible instantly recognizable. An interesting fact: while the "closed" Golf Mk1 went out of production in the early 1980s, the Cabriolet Mk1 continued until 1993, coexisting with the Golf Mk2 and Mk3.

Here we present a perfectly preserved and ready-to-drive example, with a 1. 6-liter engine that makes the car more accessible and fun, giving you the pleasure of open-top cruising in 1980s style.
