The seller offers for sale this Volkswagen Golf Mk1 from 1983, a compact sedan powered by a 1.1-liter 4-cylinder petrol engine paired with a manual transmission. This example has been in the possession of its current owner for around 30 years and has been maintained with care, benefiting from the owner’s professional experience at a dealership. The car was fully repainted approximately 10 years ago due to aging clear coat and stone chips, and the paintwork presents well. The interior remains in a neat condition with all components intact. Mechanically, the car is described as strong, with the engine running well and the gearbox shifting smoothly. It has recently undergone maintenance including a service, timing belt replacement.
The current documented mileage is 125.000 km and it holds a valid technical inspection.
