SUMMARY

A smart example of VW's rag-top hot-hatch traditionally finished in Arctic White.

DESCRIPTION

  • Finished in brilliant Arctic White with matching white cloth sports seats and a white hood
  • The first keeper had the car until 2006 and maintained under his care Volkswagen
  • Recently serviced with a fresh MOT for the auction joining previous MOT Certificates
  • The car wears the 64,000 miles (at time of cataloguing) well and we welcome any inspection
