MK1 Golf Gti

As the title says, i'm looking for a mk1 gti. Either a 1.8 8v or an early 1600 4 speed, but not a cabby. Don't want a massive project, but show me what you've got.. ive got around £2k to spend, but may stretch to a little more for the right one. Oh and lastly, im located in bristol (not that it helps much)

Thanks,
Chris

‎I know you state that you don't want a big project or a cabby but this might interest you.
1985 MK1 Golf GTI 1.8 Cabriolet, 10 months MOT & 4 months Tax, just had new rear springs & shocks for MOT, in the past 12 months it's had New valves, head skimmed, cambelt & full service, new radiator, new oil cooler, new expansion bottle, It is structurally sound, It is also mechanically great, the roof doesn't leak.
 To be perfectly honest the cosmetics are far from good, at some time in it's life a previous owner has resprayed it (very badly) and the paint is now crazed in places, peeling off in others & bubbled up in other places but there is no bare or exposed metal work, The interior needs a revamp too as it has mis-matched seats.
 I need to downsize my vehicle collection so selling off a few.

Thanks for the reply, sounds like a great deal but not really what i'm after. Don't really want a cabriolet or a caddy.

Cheers,
Chris

How about this? Its mine and I sadly have to get rid. In fact this would get you back to bristol no probs…….got me to Torrington and back over the summer. Didnt miss a beat.

That looks awesome mate.. proper love how it looks. But i'm looking for something a bit more original and with a less mental engine

But thanks for the reply.

Chris.

Fair do's Chris.
