Description
1983 MK1 Golf GTI
Ex Slick 50 and Lumenition Race car, British road saloons class B championship wining car in 2001.
Since my purchase in 2013 and to date I have had the car completely overhauled with every nut and bolt being removed. I have receipts for around 15K for the parts and work professionally done. I have purchased, and have spent over 20K getting to where it is now.

The car has done around 100 miles since all work completed and is going well, won best engine in show at this years Mk1 Golf festival. Registered as Historic. Only considering selling due to needing the completion of an older classic restoration. Would consider offers around 15K as mentioned I have spent well over this amount but am being realistic. This is an ex race car so although it has been completely rebuilt there are the odd scars so please do not expect a concours show car. Still has very hard race suspension set up. Serious enquiries only please.
