History/receipts as shown in pics

List of recent work shown in pics

 

Factory standard apart from:

·         Lowered suspension (adjustable coilovers)

·         Laid flat rear wiper

·   

·      Blue UV front & rear seats from run out MK2 GTI

·        Factory green tinted glass and vacuum operated central locking

One key fits all locks

Headliner is decent

No cracks in the dash

Seats reasonably good apart from a little bolster wear and a couple of holes

Scuttle under windscreen is good

Filler cap area is good

Body is pretty straight

Sunroof operates as it should with rust free conponents

Mechanically it is spot on, starts first time every time. Doesn’t drip any fluids and the engine bay is pretty clean

Starts, drives, and stops as it should

 

No MOT, not taken it for one. From a quick look underneath it will probably need a patch or two of welding to the sills on each side by the looks of it, and one rear jacking point along with some general re commissioning (brakes etc)


Cosmetically, the bottom of wings at the fronts and rear the arches need attention plus the paintwork shows some touched up rust bubbles and scratches/lacquer peel here and there. Battery tray needs attention but not an MOT issue. Still looks good as it is as pictures show - up to the new owner how far they take it

 

Front wiper arms/rear badge/passenger window winder all refitted since pictures taken

 

No time wasters please, its a (fairly easy) project and it's priced to sell. If it doesn't sell I'll get the welding done and MOT it, then it will be 5k
