Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This is a rare, retro manual Golf MkIII VR6 with electric Recaro seats and upgraded suspension, boasting a comprehensive service history with 24 stamps and only 116,228 miles. The car has desirable modifications, but the lack of details about its current condition makes valuation challenging.
Condition
6
Based on the description, the car has been modified with aftermarket parts (suspension, anti-roll bar) and shows mileage, suggesting wear and tear. It also mentions a huge history file with invoices, indicating a well-documented past. However, the absence of information about current cosmetic or mechanical condition makes it difficult to rate accurately.
