=== HONEST, ENTHUSIAST-OWNED VW GOLF 1.6 TDI MATCH SE BLUEMOTION ===
MILEAGE: 148,000 miles
TAX: 20/year
An incredibly honest, HPI-clear example of the highly economical VW Golf 1.6 TDI Match SE. I have maintained this vehicle mechanically and cosmetically with no expense spared. Genuine reason for sale as I am upgrading to a new vehicle later this summer.
--- CONDITION & HONESTY POINTS ---
Regularly detailed using safe valeting techniques, meaning the paintwork remains exceptionally clean and well-protected. The interior is very clean overall and has never been smoked in. To be completely transparent, there is age-related wear expected with the mileage:
Wear on the driver's offside seat bolster.
Small tears in the trim below the gearstick and on the gearstick surround.
Alloy wheels show slight corrosion (common on these specific VW wheels) and kerbing on one wheel.
Sits on excellent premium Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6 (3PMSF) tyres for safe, year-round grip.
--- HISTORY & MAINTENANCE ---
Mechanically, this Golf wants for absolutely nothing. It boasts a rigorous Full Service History, serviced every 10,000 to 11,000 miles without fail.
TIMING BELT & WATER PUMP: Strict adherence to VW's schedule. The water pump has been replaced twice (at 38,000 miles, and again alongside the timing belt last year at 120,000 miles), keeping within the 5-year/80,000-mile interval.
SUSPENSION: Rear suspension struts replaced at 83,000 miles to clear a previous MOT advisory, ensuring the ride remains tight.
MOT & UPKEEP: Clean MOT history (previous advisories only for tyres). Recently fitted with new windscreen wipers, rear number plate lights, and front dipped beam bulbs.
--- ECONOMY ---
Incredibly cheap to run, tax, and insure. Consistently returns 60-68 mpg on long journeys, offering exceptional range from the 50-litre tank.
--- SPECIFICATION ---
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) & speed limiter.
Automatic dusk-sensing headlights & rain-sensing wipers.
DAB digital radio with Bluetooth telephone & audio connectivity.
Multi-function steering wheel & air conditioning.
This is a highly dependable, meticulously serviced Golf that still has plenty of life left to give. Viewings are highly recommended to appreciate the level of mechanical care it has received.
