I bought my Caddy Sport a few years ago from a fellow called James Wadsworth, unfortunately I cant get a hold of him these days, not sure if he is on here. I belive the forum I used doesnt even exist any more (mk1caddy.com?? ) but anyway..
I have this sport, its white, had some of the stickers. The fellow I bought it off did have the zender body kit, but he wouldn`t let it go as he wanted to keep it as a spare for his other Sport.
But I have no other way of telling if it is a factory sport or converted later? I know the engine is not the original one, and interior parts have been changed.
are there any telltale signs that would give away if it was / was not a factory sport since it appears to have been changed from its original look if it is?
many thanks,
Mark

In the UK only sports had the detuned GTI unit, should be evidence if transplanted.
I remember them being delivered on forecourts. As a run out clearance model I have recollection about the factory being closed due to the war and so the special limited end of edition.
As on another post =the paper sticker is printed in the factory and one goes on the car, other in service book. The car is built to that spec. Decode it.
