The seller offers for sale this 1991 Volkswagen Golf Cabriolet Classic Line, powered by a 1.8-litre four-cylinder engine, paired with a manual transmission. It is finished in dark green metallic with a beige fabric hood, a combination that suits the understated elegance of the Classic Line special edition. The interior is trimmed in beige leather and the specification includes heated seats, power steering, a wind deflector, a catalytic converter and the multi-function display in the instrument cluster. The car has had three owners and the mileage of 172500 km is verifiable.
The paintwork and interior show signs of use in line with the age of the car, as documented in the detail photos, which makes this Golf a good candidate for a new owner who enjoys bringing a youngtimer back to its best.
The first-generation Golf Cabriolet was introduced in 1979 and was built for Volkswagen by coachbuilder Karmann in Osnabrück. Its integrated roll bar, which earned it the affectionate nickname strawberry basket in Germany, gave the car strength and safety at a time when open cars were disappearing from the market. The model proved so popular that it remained in production until 1993, long after the Golf hatchback had moved on to its second generation, and close to 400,000 were built. The Classic Line special edition of the early nineties, with its leather interior and colour-coordinated details, is among the most desirable versions.
The Golf Cabriolet combines crisp, boxy styling with the practicality and solidity that made the Golf a bestseller. The 1.8-litre engine provides lively performance and pleasant cruising, and with the hood lowered the car offers a relaxed and sociable open-air driving experience. Its simple, robust technology and good parts availability make it an easy classic to enjoy, and early Golf Cabriolets are increasingly sought after as the youngtimers of their generation.
