Volkswagen UP (121) UP GTI 2018

VW Up GTI in Tungsten Silver

It is in absolutely fantastic condition inside and out. I realise that line is used a lot in adverts, but the car really is in amazing condition. The wheels are un-kerbed with none of the usual corrosion normally associated with diamond-cut rims (see photos).

It comes in a very desirable specification with the following options:

- Panoramic sunroof

- Cruise & Park Pack: cruise control and reverse sensors

- Light and Sight Pack: Auto-wipers, Auto-lights and Emergency Brake Assist (which automatically stops the car at speeds under 20mph if an obstruction is detected ahead)

-Climate Control

The following work has been carried out in my ownership:

- JBS stage 1 remap (carried out in 2023): 144bhp and 174ft-Ib

- JBS TCS/ESP button fitted (carried out in 2024): allows you to disable the traction control, stability program, or both. The lack of this as standard was noted by journalists at the time of the cars release as an oversight by VW, and this addresses that. This is a fantastic addition to the car and is operated via a OEM VW dash button.

- Fully undersealed with Buzzweld Chassis Guard (lanolin based wax which in my experience gives a much longer lasting seal compared to similar products like Lanoguard)

- Tyres have been changed to Hankook Ventus S1 Evo's

- I have added a Carplay unit, which works flawlessly (original phone holder is also included in the sale)

JBS also coded the following in May 2024:

- Left foot braking enabled: as standard the car would cut power if the brake pedal was pressed, making any kind of advanced braking techniques impossible (i.e. left foot braking, trail braking etc.).

- Anti-rev hang: allows revs to fall naturally when off-throttle, rather than ‘hanging’ (which was for emissions purposes), allowing for faster and smoother gear changes.

- Auto-stop memory: the car now ‘remembers’ what setting it was on, rather than defaulting to ‘on’ as per standard.

- Sport mode enabled on steering: provides a more linear and direct feedback through the wheel.

- Linear Throttle Pedal Response: made a huge improvement to the responsiveness of the engine!

In addition, the following have been fitted by JBS:

Racing Line lowering springs (original springs included in sale)

Racing Line throttle elbow (original part included in sale)

Racing Line magnetic oil sump bolt
