Mk2 Golf Driver with 1.8T Conversion and Related Upgrades

Mk2 Golf Driver with 1.8T Conversion and Related Upgrades - £4950

December 29, 2020, 10:17:31 AM

Alpine White VW Golf Driver with 12 Months MOT and under 127k Miles.
Fitted with a 1.8T engine, gearbox, cable change shifter and hydraulic clutch.
G60 front brakes, Mk4 rear brakes, adjustable Spax coil overs and adjustable OBP brake bias valve.

It’s around 220bhp and due to the weight and gearing it is plenty fast and surprisingly economical.
It could have made a fraction more power from some more boost, but I didn’t want anything to compromise its reliability.

I have a few hundred miles on it now to make sure everything is right and there are no issues.
I’ve driven it on fast A Roads, twisty B Roads and sat in traffic jams and it behaves just as it should.
I have also done full VAGCOM logs to triple check everything engine and sensor wise is doing its job.

All serviceable items have been changed and everything has been done to last.
All parts listed ‘New’ were bought within the past few months and have covered less than 500 miles.

Mechanically it’s 100% as you would expect, but then £4k worth of parts should have that effect.
The car itself is in good condition and the shell is solid on top and underneath.
I wanted to get it to a point where all it needed was a cosmetic freshen up and basic maintenance going forward, and it is definitely there now.

Bad Points
It's presentable, but would benefit from a handful of touch-ups due to a few minor age/carpark blemishes dotted around.
It does have a headlining fitted, but it has a missing section of cloth toward the back, doesn't really bother me but it's noteworthy.

This Mk2 has had a lot of time and money spent on it, so please keep any real low ball offers to yourself and no swaps or part exchanges sorry.
Payment by cleared bank transfer or cash only and collection will be from Hardwired Performance, BA4 4ND.

I am back working now so feel free to fire me a message on 07803 804 581 and I will answer any questions or can call you back whenever works for you.
Thanks for looking.
