1984 VW GOLF GTI CAMPAIGN MK1

1780cc, 5-speed manual. This Volkswagen Golf Mk1 is a rare Campaign edition, one of 1500 built for the UK market in the Autumn of 1983 to mark the end of production. It's equipped with its 5 original Pirelli ‘P-Slot’ 6J 14in alloy wheels, grey striped cloth upholstery and sunroof. The Toad alarm is the only known modification.

The vendor bought the car in 2012 as a winter project but has now "come to the conclusion that that winter isn't coming soon”. It is being sold as a non-running project having failed its last MoT test in 2013. The vendor tells us there is a fuelling issue, and some electrical glitches. However, it appears to be in straight condition overall, and we're told it was running when it was put into storage. The engine was being run regularly until its fuelling problem developed in 2022.

The car is supplied with its original handbook pack, tax discs, old MoT certificate, a collection of receipts from the 2000s, and the current V5C which records 5 former keepers. The vendor has also included an assortment of spares, including a spare grill, parcel shelf, springs, injectors, ignition components and various other parts.

The odometer shows 81,519 miles, but please note there is a mileage discrepancy in the car's history. The odometer was reading 163,750 miles at the MoT test in 2010, then 81,415 miles at its test the following year.
