EXTERIOR
This stunning Mk1 GTI presents in excellent condition throughout. As one of only 1, 000 genuine UK Campaigns the car sports the correct Mk1 Pirelli alloy wheels, a twin lamp grille, sliding steel sunroof, and a few other details including green-tinted glass all round. The Schwartz Black paintwork still looks really sharp having been re painted 6 years ago with a swirl-free shine and uniform colour across every panel. The silver side stripes are a perfect accompaniment and both bumpers are without any damage or wear; all the trims, badges, lights, and rubbers are also in first-rate condition With most being new. Only a few minor blemishes evidencing the car’s age this is a fantastic example of the legendary Mk1 Golf GTI, looking every bit the low mileage of 84k miles.
INTERIOR
Inside you’re greeted by an immaculately presented and highly original interior. Having never required a re-trim the deeply bolstered sports seats look superb in their factory striped cloth. The carpets are also spotless and fade-free, and there are no cracks or scratches to report on the dash, centre console, or door cards. The rear seats are also in perfect order and the parcel shelf is excellent with no holes or damage resulting from the fitment of additional speakers.
ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION
The engine bay looks fantastic, not overly dressed but in great original condition. The Schwartz Black paintwork appears in fine order with no signs of corrosion in any of the common weak spots due to an engine out restoration 6 years ago and the engine itself looks very tidy with only expected surface patina to note. For the new keeper’s peace of mind the Golf comes fully inspected and freshly serviced at the current mileage by my trusted classic car specialist.
WHEELS, TYRES AND BRAKES
The Campaign sits on its factory 14-inch Pirelli alloy wheels, all in excellent unmarked condition with the correct Pirelli centre caps. The brakes have also been fully refurbished and present in fine condition. First registered in October 1983 this special Mk1 GTI has now driven only 84k miles. Within the accompanying History File the new owner will be presented with the original VW document wallet and all owner’s manuals, a raft of invoices and MOT certificates, historic tax discs, and spare keys.
Low mileage, Mk1 GTIs are getting very thin on the ground and so to find a Campaign with only 84k miles This one has clearly been well maintained throughout its life and while a history file is included the condition really speaks for itself.
