Description

The 1981 Volkswagen Golf 1 GTI 1.8 Convertible is known for its iconic design and sporty character. This model is part of the first-generation Golf, which was introduced in the 1970s and quickly played an important role in automotive history. The GTI variant, launched in 1976, combined the practical aspects of a hatchback with the dynamics of a sports car, resulting in a wide range of enthusiasts. The model was imported from Los Angeles to the Netherlands in 1993 and has since experienced the same ownership, being used primarily as a pleasure car.

The Golf 1 GTI Convertible features a blue linen electric convertible top, which contributes to the unique look of the vehicle. The beige interior extends onto the doors. The body was later fitted with another body kit, which further enhanced the sporty looks. The car has several features such as electric front windows and power steering, which enhanced driving comfort. This version also featured 3-spoke Carelly rims, which accentuated the car's overall aesthetic. An alarm system and an immobilizer were installed, although they are not currently active.

Recent maintenance work was performed, including the replacement of the timing belt, water pump and radiator hose. Also, the oil filter and engine oil were renewed. This attention to maintenance contributes to the reliability of the vehicle. For those interested, it is important to note that the car was always kept in a garage or storage area when not in use. To get a good idea of the lot, we recommend coming to the viewing day.
