VW Mk 1 Golf 1982
My beloved little Golf, 'GARY' is up for sale.
I never thought this day would come, unfortunately 2 other cars, a motorbike, 2 kids a wife and london rent prices have forced me to sell the car!
Owned for 10 years (bought from friend so iv known the car even longer)
96700 miles
4 speed manual
12 months MOT
Fresh oil and oil filter just done
Reg' plate valued at £500
Excellent working order!
don't make assumptions based on the condition of the body work, this car is very well looked after. It's 35 years old but runs great. Even when running one of my other cars this one was garaged and was regularly started and driven around and if anything needed doing I got it done.
This is no half finished project like so many other Mk1s for sale. Its a car that has always been running and maintained regardless.
It's my only car here in London so gets used often around town and once a month I drive to wiltshire and back visiting family. A trip of about 200 miles with wife and kids in plus the boot filled up it's never had any problems. Done this about 15 times or more that's why I'm so confident about the reliability of the car.
Converted to electronic fuel pump
Excellent starter
Warms up and maintains correct engine temp with fan cutting in and out as it should
10 years of good care this car runs great
80mm lowering kit by spax
7 x 14 banded steel wheels on 175/50 tyres (2 years old ish)
tyres wear evenly
Alpine CD Player
2 folders full of receipts and history
Some bad points i should mention,
The boot will let in water if its out in heavy rain. Seems to come in from under the rear, near side window seal.
Interior carpet removed and not replaced yet. (£119 on ebay)
Rear arch lips rusty
No rear seat belts fitted
If you're looking for a painless classic car experience and enjoy a car with real character not found in modern vehicles this is a good one
Designed by Giorgetto Guigiaro named as car designer of the century in 1999.
He also penned the Lotus Esprit, Detomaso Mangusta, BMW M1 and the Back to the Future Delorean!
A design icon that will only go up in value
Fast appreciating classic realistically priced according to market values at £3000
