Description

Opportunity to acquire a highly desirable, genuine 3-door 1990 "90 Spec" Volkswagen Golf GTI 8v.

This car has been dry-stored and has not run for approximately 15 years, making it an ideal, unmolested project for a dedicated Mk2 enthusiast or restorer.
Because it has been off the road for a decade and a half, it remains a brilliant time capsule that hasn't been subjected to modern road salt, poor modifications, or teenage thrashing.

Key Details:
• Body Style: Genuine 3-Door Shell (Highly sought after)
• Engine: 1. 8L 8v GTI
• Year: 1990 (H-Reg, 90 Spec big bumper model)
• Status: Complete project requiring a full mechanical and structural rebuild. Non-runner.

Condition Report:
• Completeness: The car is complete with its original engine, gearbox, interior, and exterior trim panels present. Buyers will not have to spend months hunting down rare, missing 90-spec components.
• Bodywork & Structure: As expected for a vehicle of this age and layup, there is rust that requires attention. It will need structural welding to the flooring and repair work around the wheel arches.
• Mechanics: The mechanical systems (engine, brakes, suspension, fuel system) have been idle for 15 years and should be treated as needing a total overhaul/ rebuild before attempting to start.

Logistics & Sale Terms:
The car is sold strictly as a restoration project. It does not run or stop under its own power, so the buyer will need a trailer/ flatbed and appropriate winching gear for collection.
Priced fairly at £1, 250 to reflect the required structural work, but open to sensible offers from genuine enthusiasts who want to see this classic back on the road. No group viewings, no tyre-kickers, and no automated "is this available" spam.
Located in Brigstock, Northamptonshire. Please get in touch via the platform to arrange a viewing or ask any questions.
