This Golf GTI 1800 was sold new on February 28, 1983, by the Volkswagen importer of Belgium, les établissements D'Ieteren, of Brussels. It was metallic grey in color. On March 8, 1994, it received a Dutch registration and has belonged to its current owner, an employee of the Volkswagen Autobedrif Hoekstra garage, since October 12, 2007. It underwent a restoration accompanied by modifications with the installation of chrome Golf Mk1 bumpers, wide BBS rims, Audi door handles, electric windows, and a steel sunroof. The engine was also overhauled and, since its complete restoration, this car has covered only 8,560 km. It comes with a complete file including numerous invoices. With its quality paintwork and impeccable interior, it is an interesting representative of the model which revolutionized the market for small fast sedans, generating a category of cars to which it gave its name, "GTI". In this 1800 version, it is even more efficient than the first of them, accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in 9.4 seconds and topping 180 km/h.
