The Appeal
The Mk2 Golf GTi is widely regarded as the purest expression of VW's hot hatch legend. This was a car that was lighter, more direct, and more analogue than anything that followed, while developing from its predecessor in a way that felt convincing and capable. A standard, unmodified example is becoming ever more difficult, which makes this 1991 car all the more compelling.
Finished in Capri Green - a colour only available from VW during 1991 and 1992 - this GTi is reported by the vendor to be as it left the factory. Not driven in wet conditions for the last eight years, garage stored all year round with fuel stabiliser and a battery tender, and maintained by a local garage experienced with classic cars, it's a fine prospect for any enthusiast - real hot hatch royalty. image.png1.66 MB
