For many, the Golf GTI is the hot hatch - and it's easy to see why. Better engineered than its French rivals and just as engaging to drive this little Volkswagen worked equally well as an everyday car and weekend warrior. What more could you ask for?!
This 1991 example is among the last of the 'Big Bumper' three-door MkII GTIs. It's a very sharp example of the 1.8-litre 8v model, benefitting from judicious servicing and a few choice upgrades like coilover suspension and BBS wheels. There are an impressive 18 service stamps to 2023 at 112,000 miles and the car had a main dealer inspection and report carried out in 2020 at 110,778 miles.
With an MOT valid until June 2025, fresh Toyo Proxy tyres, and stylish BBS wheels, this Golf GTI is ready to hit the road.
