Description:In Brief:
On the Surface: This 1989 Volkswagen Jetta GTI 16v is a perfect platform for a project. Finished in Black over a Grey cloth interior. Owned by Car Mechanics magazine editor Martyn Knowles for the last 26 years, the car was purchased in 1999 for £2,050 and has since been featured on the Classics World YouTube channel. With just 5 former keepers, this Jetta GTI is a rare find. Maintenance & History: The car comes with a comprehensive history file, including MOT certificates dating back to 1994, invoices for parts, servicing, and maintenance amounting to approximately £3,500, and the original Volkswagen (V.A.G) bookpack. The bookpack contains the Jetta Instruction Manual, V.A.G Service Directory, and V.A.G Service Schedule. The Service Schedule documents 6 service stamps and 1 handwritten entry for maintenance completed between 1990 at 25,015 miles and 1995 at 69,187 miles. The car is running and driving and MOT’d until May, however, the car could do with some cosmetic attention to get it back to top conditon. The Model: The Volkswagen Jetta GTI 16v is often overshadowed by the Mk2 Golf GTI but shares much of its running gear and other parts. It shares the a 1.8-litre, 16valve engine with the Golf that delivers 110 bhp which can achieve 0-60 mph in just over 8 seconds and a top speed of 118 mph. As a four-door saloon alternative to the Golf, the Jetta GTI has become a rare and collectible option, with less than 50 examples registered on UK roads today. Sale Insight: This Jetta GTI represents a unique chance to own a rare with collectable car that is the perfect platform for a light project. Its long-term ownership and history file provide good provenance and its presence on the Classics World YouTube channel gives an even better insight into the cars past! |
