Description
I am selling my lovely golf MK3 1. 8GL finished in the bright Alpine White matched with the lovely Blue interior. The golf has covered just 42, 800 Miles and prior to my ownership was kept by the same family since the early 2000s where it was purchased directly from letchworth Volkswagen.

Full bookpack
Really nice original example, there are a couple of stone chips, and one stone chip on the rear quarter that has reacted, the paintwork is excellent and the alpine white really suits this vehicle. Plenty of power from the 1. 8 8V matched with 5 speed gearbox. This would be and excellent investment - these MK3 golfs are becoming increasingly hard to find, especially in this condition while being nearly 30 years old. Purchased around three years ago from a family who had the car from when it was nearly new, it was incredibly original and a genuine rare find.
Needed some minor reconditioning but has always run/ driven really well. The golf was dry stored while carrying out the work.
I have a collection of vehicles and I have lost some of my storage - so it’s time to pass it on to someone else.
