SUMMARY

Very tidy, low-mileage, low ownership, 8-valve car, with a substantial history file and very well presented in Mars Red.

DESCRIPTION

  • The Mk2 may have suffered for not being the first Golf GTi, but in many ways, it’s a better car - faster, more comfortable and more modern
  • Powered by a 1.8-litre, naturally-aspirated, 8-valve inline-four, producing around 110bhp, driving the front wheels through a 5-speed manual transmission
  • Showing just two former keepers and an odometer reading of 46,801 miles at the time of cataloguing, this desirable 3-door GTi has been returned to the road after being laid up from 2001 until May of this year
  • Finished in the classic GTi combination of Mars Red with grey checkered cloth seats
  • MOT valid until 18/05/2026 issued with 'no advisories'. Original handbook and vast array of previous tax discs, MOT certificates and invoices etc.
  • A smart example of the renowned hot-hatch with low ownership and supplied with an impressive history file
