Had this for 2 months now, was not really looking for this spec but the condition won me over and the seller was spot on....Always looking for stock cars that have been lovingly owned and this having only 30k and all the paperwork it made sense.....

Spec wise has the rns 510, 18 monza in original finish,cruise,leather,mfsw,dsg,winter pack.

Replaced both rear lights and just added some more layers of wax....future plans to detail the whole underside, wheels off and do all the brakes and suspension ready for next year...also a remap....nothing exciting just enjoying a really nice clean gti that is so much nicer than messing around with corrados and mk2`s that i have been doing the last few years...

I think I remember the for sale advert - thought then it looked a cherished car, and just seeing these pics confirms how much!
That underside pic - pretty much like new!

All the best - look forward to future updates!

That looks lovely! I think Silver suits golf's of any guise! I certainly wish my R was silver or grey at times!:

Great condition golf with a low mileage. Better to find a good condition car, as you can retrofit most of the options

Decided to start the clean up before Stanford Hall, still need to paint the brakes and wishbones but got a good start on it.....machine polished the inside of the wheel which came up well.....
