Background: Few cars have enjoyed the enduring reputation of the Volkswagen Golf GTI.
Having established the formula with the original Mk1, Volkswagen introduced the second-generation Golf in 1983, retaining the essential character of its predecessor whilst adding greater refinement, space and maturity.
The familiar 1.8-litre, fuel-injected four-cylinder engine remained at the heart of the 8-valve GTI, coupled to a five-speed manual gearbox.
Quick enough to entertain without compromising its everyday usability, the Mk2 became a defining hot hatch of the 1980s and remains an immediately recognisable part of Volkswagen's performance history.
As surviving examples have increasingly been restored or modified over the intervening four decades, finding a largely original and well-preserved example has become considerably more difficult.
The Car: Dating from 1986, this two-door Golf GTI 1.8 8V is finished in white with a grey cloth interior and currently indicates 127,253 miles.
