1989 Vw mk2 Golf GTI 8v For Sale

I have owned the car for the last 3 years and has never let me down.

The previous owner has put a 2 litre bottom end in, a fast road cam and a powerflow exhaust so It doesn't hang around. I have receipts for all the parts brought. The interior was also re-done by a previous owner so is in pretty mint condition, one small hole on the back seat and the bolsters on front seats have no holes in them.

In the time I have owned the car I have done many jobs, some of them include:
Re-conned the power steering rack.
Cam belt and water pump (approx 4000 miles ago).
Replaced the instrument cluster as the rev counter didn't work (trip says 64000 but the car has done 144000, I have the original cluster).
Fitted bilstein shocks and eibach 30-40 mm lowering springs (very smooth ride yet stiff enough to chuck it round a corner with control).
Replaced sunroof seal and both door seals.
Has had new near side wing due to rust.
Boot has had a re-spray due to lacquer starting to bubble.
4 new toya proxes T1-R tyres about 2000 miles ago.
Have re-stone chipped the rear arches as they are known to rust on the turrets.
Have done various other small jobs but too many to mention.

The bad points include:
The bottom of the rear arches has started to rust through, has been like it from owning the car but never got round to doing it.
It could do with setting up again as I have replaced various vacuum pipes that were cracked and perished but still drives fine once warmed up.

Apart from those things the car is in great condition for 28 years old. It has been very well taken care of, kept indoors for the last year and has barely done 1000 miles.
No longer have the time to use it so it's time to let it go.

It has 11 months MOT.
144000 miles.
Lots of service history.
