History of the model

IMG_0811.PNG Hello all,
I am the proud owner of a silver 5 door GX. Unfortunately I do not know anything about this model. I don't know where it was in the range anything. So if anyone could enlighten me I would be more than happy! Many thanks

Yes GX was runout just before MK2 launched, a GL(?) 5dr with a number of "options" as standard to entice punters to buy instead of sitting on their hands and waiting until they could buy a MK2.

Think they were available in silver, grey and met green?

Just the same as the Campaign was a runout spec'd up GTI to keep sales up.

1983 Mars Red 1.8 Golf GTI
1987 Alpine White 1.8 Clipper Cabriolet

The trouble with doing nothing is that you never know when you are finished.

I can't even remember the options (over the GL) - was it sunroof and metallic colours not available elsewhere eg the green?
