Description

This was a shed find down in London that I picked up in 2023. Needed some love and care on the outside and a few mechanical repairs and replacements.

On the interior - a stunning blue and black combination, with blue tweed material all round in near perfect condition. (Even has the original 40 year old mats)

Amazon Alexa stereo with voice control and bluetooth connectivity have been installed, along with a Halo Vision front and rear dash cam.

Ulez exempt and officially a classic in August with the perks of tax and MOT exemption. This has been my wee project and recently my daily driver over the last few months.

Very clean underneath with no structural rot. Welding on rear sills, scuttle and driver door completed prior to a full exterior paint refresh by JC Autobody.

Wheels also refurbished with plastic VW hub covers.

The speedo hasn't worked since I bought the car and is static at just under 68k miles. Realistically I'd say we are in the ball park of between 80k and 90k miles.

Feel free to message or call for any questions.

The price is relatively low for a fast sale, but offers are entirely welcome. Not many Freshly painted, rust free, mechanically sound Mk2s around at the price - especially the rare early 80s model.

Car comes with extras:

Original blue tweed seats. (I suggest use for upholstering the GTI to be more infitting)
Brand new rubber door seals.
Brand new plastic wheel arches x4.
Original plastic exterior door trim.
Original headlights.
