This 1996 Volkswagen Golf Avantgarde Convertible, with its striking orange metallic finish and cream roof, presents a rare and attractive specification.

Condition
7
The car is described as being in 'time warp condition' and a 'real credit' to its previous owners, suggesting it's been well-maintained. There's an extensive service history, including a recent service, new hood, and cambelt replacement. There's no mention of any dents, paint damage, or curb marks, indicating good cosmetic condition. However, as a used vehicle with 115,877 miles, slight wear is expected.
