1984 GTI

A few recent pictures of my early GTI, after what has felt like a very long hibernation.
The car was built in May 1984 and is the launch specification, with a few differences to GTIs built later in 1984.























I have also uploaded some images of the mechanical refresh carried out by the previous owner, over a period of 4 years.
This may be of interest to someone restoring an early MK2 GTI to original spec.
RESTO PICS

I will be at a few VW shows this year, including the National Meet, which is always the highlight for me!

She’s looking lovely Nick.

It won’t be a surprise to you Nick but I definitely miss YGK!

Hope all good pal.

Credit is entirely due to the first owner for looking after it and Lawrence, the second owner, for the remarkable refresh. I mostly drive it, wash it, and occasionally polish it.

I think she probably misses your level of service Lawrence! Hope to see you at the national meet.
