1990 VOLKSWAGEN GOLF

A superb 1990 Volkswagen Golf MkII GTI, showing just under 63, 000 miles from new. Finished in Atlas Grey and sitting correctly on its rare factory option Estoril alloy wheels, it perfectly captures everything that made the MkII such a benchmark hot hatch. This example also benefits from the very rare rear pop-out windows, a sought-after period option that enhances this vehicles originality.

Powered by the 1. 8-litre fuel-injected four-cylinder engine, driving the front wheels through a five-speed manual gearbox, the MkII GTI delivered sharp throttle response, precise steering and a level of chassis balance that defined the era. With around 139bhp in 16-valve specification, performance remains lively even by modern standards, while the lightweight, analogue feel is exactly what enthusiasts continue to seek out.

Presented in genuinely excellent condition, this example retains its sharp, understated styling, correct trim and factory character throughout. The paintwork, wheels and interior all reflect careful ownership, and the car drives as tightly as its mileage would suggest.

Accompanying the car is a substantial history file, with a thick stack of paperwork supporting its low mileage and originality. A well-preserved, low-mileage GTI that represents a rare opportunity to own one of the true icons of late-80s and early-90s performance motoring.
