For Sale: 1989 Volkswagen GTI in Katwijk, Netherlands

Volkswagen Golf GTI II, 1989. One owner, 58,028 km, service books from new.

Volkswagen has built a reputation over the years as the definitive maker of reliable, forward-thinking and timeless cars. In 1976 the brand introduced a model that would change the world of compact sports cars forever: the Golf GTI. Where the original GTI (Mk1) had already sparked a revolution, Volkswagen managed to set the standard once again with the Golf Mk2 GTI in the hot hatchback segment.
Launched in 1984 and produced until 1992, the Golf Mk2 GTI is renowned for its refinement, reliability and unrivalled driving experience. It grew bigger, stiffer and more powerful than its predecessor, without losing its playful character. This generation of GTI became a true icon within the motoring world and is regarded today as a collector's item with lasting value, especially in exceptional original condition.

This particular example, a Volkswagen Golf Mk2 GTI from June 1989, is a rare find of exceptional quality. With only 58,028 documented kilometres, this GTI is in as-new condition, a state that is rarely encountered in a car now carrying more than thirty years of history.
The car was acquired directly from an extensive private collection in Germany, the country where it was first registered in 1989. It proudly wears its complete original paint in the factory colour Heliosblau, a shade that suits the sporty yet understated character of the Mk2 GTI perfectly. The interior, finished in grey cloth, is just as fresh and cared-for as the day it left the factory.

The story continues on our website, where the full file is kept as well. 88 photographs including the underside. The service history, scanned in full. Paint thickness measured panel by panel. The original factory brochure to page through. A timeline from 21 June 1989 to today, with every owner and the mileage year by year in a single graph.
