Originally SOLD New by "Dovercourt at Battersea" for £16 500 :smt107 back in 1988 (I still have the original invoice). Apart from all the usual 16V GTi speck it has pretty much every other option including factory remote alarm ( a novelty in 1988 ), PAS, lecky windows, rear head rests with the before mentioned leather interior and factory Air Con ( £1300 option back in 1988 ) She's a "Rolling Restoration" and once finished will probably be SOLD to the next Golf Nut :smt089Originally posted by Silver Bullet View PostLove the golfs by the way, i had a mint Tornado red Rallye back in the day, I was a golf nut!!!:beer:

My pa had a big bumpered 16valve, i used to love it when he wound it up in second gear, great revving engine.
He part x'd it for a Corrado VR6 in the end after we found out it had been in a massive crash,front,back & both sides:bigcry:

Decent Mk 2 16V are becoming quite rare now - especially since the Golf Championship started in 2007. There have been around 70 cars built for the championship since then and I reckon it has had a small impact on availability and prices of these cars now. We used to be able to pick up a 100,000 miler with a bit of MOT, solid shell, everything complete and working for about £500 - thrash it all the way home and they would never miss a beat - the perfect base for a race car. You have to pay nearly double that for pile crap now.
