Description
I am selling the car because I am working abroad next year and do not want to leave it for 12 months without use. I have had the car for the last 4 years, absolutely love it. Its a mk4 VW Golf 4motion, manual 6 gear with tinted windows and the GTI 25th anniversary trim. It's been incredibly reliable, and so much fun to drive I will be sad to see it go.
It has the expected wear and tear for a 21 year old car, the odd scratch and flecks in the paintwork and slight surface rust on rear wheel arch etc but nothing that can't be fixed easily. The EML is on due to a sensor problem on the throttle body this has been explored by my garage in depth, a there is no affect or issue on the performance of the car. The car still drives fantastically.
A quick run down of work it has had done includes.
New clutch and timing chain at 100, 000 miles.
Over the last four years, I have added a full custom exhaust from infinity exhausts. and replaced the wheels to some black FOX FX004 racing rims, always running premium tyres.
The car has had major services twice a year (since I have owned it) roughly every 5000 miles changing all filters and oil etc.. kept it running smoothly. I have replaced several of the original parts due to general wear and tear including the steering rack, arms, the sump and the brakes, callipers and pads. I have most of the invoices for the last 6 years of work done too. I bought the car because I think the mk4 VW Golf is great value for money, you get over 200bhp and with the 4motion system meaning you get a punchy quick hatchback that sticks to the road like glue, amazing for driving A roads, equally performs well on the motorway. Also the paint quality is still pretty good considering the age of the car, that the windows, rims and the GTI 25th Anniversary trim really come together for a fresh yet old school looking car that's performance competes with many of the new models. I am reluctant to sell the car however I am working away all of next year and I do not want to leave it stagnant on my drive for 12 months. I would prefer someone else to get some fun and enjoyment out of it.
