Coco convertibles.

Theres a rather smart MK1 Golf Convertible for sale up the road from me and its badged as a Coco Channel.

It's a C-reg but has a clipper body kit. It looks like it has Blue leather seats. The roof looks quite new and is also Blue.
 Were these standard on this model? If not what was?

Does the fact that it's a Coco make it anymore valuable?

Just looking for ammo realy for when i get to have a word with the seller so that i have some idea what im talking about and what im looking for.

Thanks.  

regular saying on this site,its worth what youd pay for it,if roofs leaking youd need to check for rust ,has it been looked after,service history etc... :dontknow:

not a clue about cabriolets, but CC doesn't stand for coco chanel - no idea where this originally came from - see it posted at least once a day!

CC stands for Christmas Cabriolet (guessing this was as they are all white?)

hope that helps :y:

I think the cc had a white cloth interior with black bits and a white roof origionally or at least the couple i've seen had these :dontknow:

Years ago my friend had a cabby that was white with a blue interior (seats, carpets etc) and a blue roof.

Don't know if it was a CC (before I knew about such things!) but I'm pretty sure it was alll standard. Could be wrong though.

If it's a CC then it should not have a "Clipper" body kit on it.

See if this helps.

It's white with a black stick on stripe that looks like two 'C's on the rear quarter just behind the fuel cap if that helps.

What year were these CC made and does anyone know the standard spec?

As i said this one has a Clipper kit but is on a C-plate. It's also got some funky shiny  BBs wheels, not your standard mk2 wheels either these look like split rims.

Suppose i should really go and have a word with the bloke selling it!

Thanks for that. It would appear that it's a Christmas Cabriolet  

I suppose that it's a bit hard to put a price on it without seeing it. The blokes after ?3000ono  :dontknow:

there was a post on either the very same car or one very simmilar a few weeks back... go back through the previous pages and you may find it, i would, but i have zombies to hunt!

The CC GTI's were built 1985 (C-Reg) - I nearly bought one about 12/13 years ago…

Thanks for that. Any idea which index and how long ago?
