WTB Exceptional White MK1 Cabriolet Prefer White Interior

Wow she is nice! Richy you're a genius 'cause that is what I will do. I've agreed to buy a GTi that has a mint white interior. Will just wait for a mint Clipper and swap everything over! Cheers for the tip.
Okay so now I want a Clipper in white :) Less than 40K miles with FSH

sounds like a plan then put clipper interior into GTI and sell it :-)

keep the clipper with interior from your GTI in it

you could buy a white GTI cabby as well is dosnt have to be a clipper :-)

I had the other one in 1992. I am THAT old :) It's a mid-life sentimental think and modern cars leave me cold so … has to be the same spec :)
There is something about the Clippers to me. Love them.

over price just in my personal opinion but its fairly low mileage, white and sounds solid , you might wana check it out and make and offer :-)

After all that low mileage talk I bought a 140K mile one with FSH. She has only done 12K in the last 10 years. She doesn't drive as nice as my old 37K mile Clipper so … why might that be and how long do these engines last? Two wheel bearings need replacing so that will effect smoothness wont it.

A mint high miler for everyday use and a mint low miler with 24K for special days :) Pics soon ;)

I have that interior you were after in my loft but as you said it gets dirty quick and my driver seat bolster needs repairing :-)

It's a doddle to clean with Simoniz upholstery foam. I reckon you should get it down from the loft :)

the all white triple was a limited edition car produced in 1986,they did 3 types…blue,black and white.
in 1989 in the onsabrook factory they made a further 104 gti clipper all whites as they had seats/interiors left over.very rare to find a decent one if one at all…
this is mine

all standard and came with the bbs sportline alloys as a bonus.

Just an update to say that I am now back looking for a perfect low mileage all white big bumpered GTi Cabriolet.
Max 30K miles.
Must have completely original paint (stone chip touch ups okay).
Must have a documented FSH.
Must have the white lasky fabric interior.

I will pay top money for the right car. I did find a 46K one which I bought but have discovered it has had a new wing and the perfectionist in me can't live with that  :? Will put it (and another) on Ebay in the summer…

That's a beaut that you have there! I did find two and bought them both but I want one that is 100% original i.e. no new paint etc. They are out there. I'll just have to wait …
