Default Imaculate Golf Gti Mk3 - A cheap daily driver for someone

Make: MK3 GTI 8v 4 door

Year/Reg: 1995
Mileage: 115,000
MOT: June 2009
Tax: May 2009
Location: Kent
Price: £1200 (priced to sell)
HPI clear

Totaly original MK3 gti 4 door in dragon green. No modifications. Full VW service History up until 90,000. Looked after by myself and the Vehicle workshop VW breakers in Sandwich Kent ( They say it is the best MK3 they have seen for a long long while - call them for independent confirmation).

Recent service - all fluids and filters done and cam belt checked. Newish battery and Brakes - Fully waxoiled underneath.

Interior mint - very very slight wear to drivers seat. One rear electric window both needs new mech fitting on the look out for one now - apart from that immaculate.

Outside very straight odd very minor blemish - one very small area of rust has been treated where the roofline meets the windscreen.

Alloys in good condition for age - usual odd nick and scrape when you look close up. Rear tyres are fine the fronts are a bit thin do replacing these.

Apart from the minor points above. The car is in fantastic condition and drives faultlessly. I got 48.3mpg from it on the motorway the other day doing 60mph.

Its cheap to run and will make someone a great economical daily driver.

Not as a focused drive as the MK2 - but still has a bit of a nice old school feel. Bit more of a cruiser on the motorway than the Mk2.
The pictures speak for themselves.

Contact details: Any questions contact Steve - brightonmunich@yahoo.co.uk

Alternatively - if you have a well looked after nicely modded classic scoob you want to swap with cash your way then this would be good (I am on the look out for my third classic) It will go to a good home

If anyone wants more detailed pics - I will email them.

To give you an idea of how well looked after this car is - my recent service notes I made

108,000
Gear Box oil changed
Brether Pipe replaced
Waxoiled
Injection system cleaned
New wing mirror glass
All fluids checked

109,000

Throttle Body Cleaned
PCV Valve cleaned
New Battery
Timing Checked - OK
Plugs Checked - OK
Idle Control Replaced

110,500 October

Oil Change
Brake Fluid Changed
Coolant changed
Full underbody inspection - all OK
Air Filter
Fuel Filter
Oil Filter

I am looking for my third classic WRX - in silver, black or blue - it has to be in very good condition. So if you want to PX plus some cash your way let me know.

Blemish Pics

One shows the small area of rust on the roof line. Apart from that bodywork is rust free and in great nick for a 14 year old

One shows recently arrived minor ding in the rear offside door (thoughtless gits in supermarkets)

One shows general condition of alloys - which are pretty good.

One shows the boot condition - spare wheel jack ect all in situ
