1986 VW Golf GTI Cabriolet SOLD
Musically, the charts were dominated by Madonna and within ten days of being registered, England are defeated in the World Cup by the "Hand of God", cruelly dealt by the now infamouos Diego Maradonna!
A trip to the cinema was a bit special too, and we were introduced to "Maverick" a. k. a. Lt Pete Mitchell in Top Gun.
This special Golf GTi "CC" Cabriolet lived that life, it moved in those circles and unlike many of the stars of the time, this example is still looking absolutely fantastic.
This example arrived at Silverwood in excellent order and was a completely rust-free example. The car had covered virtually no mileage in nearly a decade, so required light re-commissioning by ourselves which included mainly new brakes, bushes and arms underneath. the underneath of the car is now exceptional and has so obviously benefited from years of careful storage.
Bodywork
While nearly all original paint, the body was showing signs of age in scratches and chips and with this being a Silverwood car, we decided to breathe new life into the car so we have commissioned a full strip and bare metal re-paint to a very high standard and is now in show condition.
Wheels and Tyres
Specially purchased by Silverwood, brand new for this car are a set of Ronal LS 7. 5 x 15" alloy wheels wearing brand newKhumo tyres. this gives a superb classic look to and MK1 and are also period correct for the car!
Service History
This car has only covered 55, 636 miles, and comes with the original blue service wallet, including manuals, dealer directory and original service book which features eleven VW service stamps mainly by Scotts VW London. An accompanying file with many invoices for additional work and lots of the original for additional work. Lots of the original-style M. O. T certificates are also included.
In Summary, the completed car is simply wonderful and ready to be enjoyed by it's next lucky owner.
P. S. The keen eyed amongst you will have noticed the BMX featured at the end of the photography session..... it was the perfect excuse to include another icon from 1986, it is a Haro Freestyler, and to those of us of a certain age will recall, an icon of 80s BMX freestyler Bob Haro. Now he was one cool dude!
