1985 VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT GL5 ESTATE 

1,994cc, 5-cylinder. This top of the range estate has been family owned from new. It was purchased at Poplar Garage, King's Lynn when it was initially used as a company car, often travelling throughout Germany before the family purchased it for private use. The cars velour interior remains in lovely condition, it was fitted with electric windows, power assisted steering and central locking and, apart from the period alloys, remains standard. The family believe it was the first face-lift 32B to reach the UK. Being members of the VW Owners Club, the car has participated in classic rallies including the London to Brighton. It has been regularly serviced and garaged throughout. The current mileage reading is 120,190 but there is a hand-written entry in the service book that states a new speedo was fitted at 29,786 miles in 1986. The original service book stamped to 1988, older V5, many receipts, rally details and plaques, MoT history, sales brochure, handbooks and wallet complete the history file.
