Default Mk3 Golf GTI ***SOLD***

I've decided to sell my mk3 Golf GTI.

I've had it about 6 months and it's been reliable for me, just don't really need it anymore and I could do with the dough to put towards getting my cossie finished.

It's a 2.0 8v so not the fastest thing on the planet but it's not what I'd call slow either, I've actually found it quite good fun to drive.

It's got a few nice bits on it, 18" BBS wheels, Gaz coilover suspension, black Colour Concept Recaro interior, stainless exhaust with de-cat pipe etc...



















It's got MOT until the end of February 2013, it's currently sorned as I've got a new car and using that now.

It's got a couple of bits that need finishing like the side skirts needing to be fitted back on, new scuttle panel trims (mint ones supplied), cooling fan works when it feels like it and that's about it really.

I'm not 100% sure on the mileage as the instrument cluster has been changed in the past (before I owned it) but I estimate it to be around 125k but it does drive spot on.

There are of course the odd little dink and scratch as it is now 18 years old but as you can see in the photos, it's still very presentable!!

Also it has a total closure Clifford alarm system fitted.

I'm after £1150 which I think is reasonable considering it has a few nice bits on it.

If interested, please call me on 07545785366.

Cheers!

Gaz.

It overheats if the fan doesn't work as any car would!! Lol!

Like I said, sometimes it comes on, other times it doesn't.

It has got some history but not for the last few years.

No major rot underneath, the rusty bits were dealt with by the previous owner, didn't notice anything dodgy when it was MOT'd in February.

It's not a genuine Colour Concept, just has the interior from one.

If you're driving and not stationary, the fan has no reason to be on does it?!!

The underneath is solid mate, the previous owner had the problem with the drainage holes which caused the sills to rot but he had all this repaired.

The side skirts are still off at the moment so easily checked, the front wings are new as these were replaced when the sills were done.

Doh!!

Never mind!! I would rather have seen this go to someone who'd use it and enjoy it rather than sell it in pieces but hey ho.

No worries mate, if you want the interior mate, let me know. I'm not too far from you.
