Description

With heavy heart, I've decided to part with my Genuine GTI Estate. I'm the 3rd owner, the first being Perry's Ford, the second being my parent. The car was stripped in 2022, any welding done, full respray to its original colour, original wheels refurbished, brand new Ford rear bumper, new windshield, rear spoiler replaced, engine sensors replaced, new clutch, new cam belt and water pump, new exhaust centre pipe and back box. Headlining refurbished. New CAT and battery in September 2026. Wing mirrors converted to electric adjustment with Ford parts on original loom. The original seats and door cards were not salvageable and was unable to find decent like for like so replaced with Ghia X full black leather, seats and door cards. The engine starts and runs beautifully. With only a handful of these left, this truly is a rare opportunity to obtain a beautiful example of this modern classic. Fresh MOT as of 10/10/26. Almost all paperwork for its entire life and all three keys. It was involved in a CAT N in its early days, rear off side quarter was hit and repair carried out by Fords. Please feel free to ask any questions.
