Hi all
funds are now very tight as works dried up, so cant afford to keep all the cars on the road so now up for sale is this low mileage golf
She's a 1987 small bumper MK2 Golf GL
The GL model is great as it has all the extras
Electric Windows
Central Locking
Power Steering
Electric Ariel
The Golf although a small bumper model is the later revision of the mk2 golf not having the early front quarter lights
Current Mileage is 40600 (give or take a few)
I've had this car for about a year now and in that time its had
A new MOT, well its Valid now until Feb 21st 2009 Failed on Mid section exhaust only, otherwise sailed through with an advisory on brakes. I've changed the pads up front and the discs looked pretty good to
Aug 07 - New Bosch spark plugs, plus minor service, ie oil, oil filter, air filter and fuel filter replaced
Replaced Engine mounting, new cambelt at 36436 miles new fan belt New power steering elt, exhaust downpipe clamp and gaskets
Sep 07 saw a head gasket replacement, plus oil filter renewal, the head gasket was only replaced because the exhaust manifold gaskets had gone, so it was stripped down and the only way at the manifold is head off and replace all gaskets including manifold gaskets.
Jan 08
Oil change, New HT Leads, Rotor Arm and Dizzy Cap Minor Service
Feb 08 Brake Pads and Mid section for MOT
Apr 08 Oil and filter change
Plus there is a HUGE folder full of various receipts from previous owner
I bought this car from a young man who'd been using it to get to college, it was his neighbours grannies car prior to that hence the low mileage (and the stack receipts prooves the mileage)
The Car
GOLF 1.8 GL Carb AUTOMATIC TORNADO RED
5DR GL model has chrome trim to windows and bumpers, as mentioned earlier fully loaded with toys
Because this car is an auto IT HAS NEVER been thrashed, but pulls very stronlgy, I have friends with Mk1 and MK2 GTI's that cant keep up with me from a standstill etc, the gearbox is amazingly smooth and changes just when you need it to, however for all those put off by AUTOMATICS, as this car has low mileage its a worthy cause to convert to a manual, but after driving you realise there is no need to
The seats look like they have never been sat in and the interior is in excellent condition, I've been told by loads that with a little bit of time it would be worthy of concours, but thats not my style at all
The bodywork has a coupel of bad bits, there is a small scratch above the rear wheel arch (would probably polish out) there is another scratch in the passenger read door which is only noticeable when looking low down for it, there is a little rust under the front windscreen (common on golfs) and the paintowrk, liek all VW reds, if not polished will fade, but this has been kept well polished and isnt that bad at all
She starst first time every time and has NEVER let me down, for an auto she is good on juice, giving high 20's round town and on a recent run up north of 200 miles averages 35mpg at an average speed of 70+
The car is due to run out of tax at the end of july and if not sold by then will be declared SORN
I don't really want to sellt his car as I've invested a lot of time and cash into it and have bills to proove it (all above except minor services as I did them)
Please, no test pilots, I will only let someone else drive the car if and when I have the full asking price in my hand and I've seen a copy of valid driving insurance, then the rules stay as break it, you buy it
I will happily deliver the car anywhere in the UK for a cost of £1 per mile, minimun of £5
I don't have many photos of it at the moment uploaded, but will do a full spec at the weekend and upload some more
The alloy wheels shown in the picture are NOT included in the sale, if required these can be purchased for an additional £150 otherwise the car will be sold with its original steel wheels
To arrange a viewing or just to buy it, please email me at lawsy@veedubbery.co.uk pm via here or call on 07834 515382 and ask for Steve
car is located in West Berkshire
Ideally I'd love to cover my costs for this car, but £1500 would be silly
Priced to sell
Looking for genuine offers of around £795 for a quick sale
will be going on ebay next week
I've tried to be as honest as possible to avoid wasting anyones time, therefore please don't waste mine either
thanks for looking
Now just imagine it lower......

Why is it that whenever I buy a car or bike a really nice one pop ups a few days later for a bargain price!
