Volkswagen Golf 1990

Highly original car in rare Jade Green metallic Full service history with every service sheet and stamp since new In single family ownership for 33 years Factory standard 8V in very good order Fully serviced in March 2025 MOT to March 2026 The Appeal The original Mk1 Golf GTI was, indisputably, brilliant. But, we’ll wager, it is the Mk2 where the genesis of the car’s legend really rests. It car was as agile and engaging as the original, but with a more grown up, usable feel that made it a proper all rounder. Enthusiasts are split between 16V and 8V models. The 8V delivers a more instant, fizzing experience, and that’s the car we have here. It is a proper find, a highly original, unmodified car that has been in the same family since it was five years old. For the vast majority of that time, it has been the pride and joy of the vendor’s mother. Finished in ultra rare Jade Green metallic, it presents very well. As an unrestored, original car there are a few minor cosmetic points to note, but nothing that a few light hours wouldn’t rectify. Beyond the aesthetics, the service history is impeccable. As you’ll see below and in the photos, there is an uninterrupted run of servicing and maintenance. For the last 30+ years, it has returned almost annually to the same local specialist. It received a full service in March 2025, and the MOT runs to March 2026. This is clearly a much-loved GTI that is in great order and with top notch provenance. It has the makings of a show star, or simply get out and enjoy one of the best hot hatches of the last 40 years. Car is registered in Ireland as a vintage.
