MK3 Golf VR6 Show Car. (SOLD)


Recommended Posts

Since I don't get the time to drive this anymore and the fact that it sits in my garage for 99% of it's life, I honestly think it's time to let it go and to let someone else enjoy it. Seems such a huge shame to have it tucked away.

The car comes with a massive folder of receipts that will take days to go through.
Car currently has no MOT, as it's sat in the garage I didn't see the point in getting it done again. It's done about 30 miles since it's last MOT. If it's of importance it can be done.
 
Car has number plates for the MOT. Side repeaters are also located in the scuttle panel should they be needed.
 
I think that covers most things that I can think of.
 
Car has been garaged it's entire life, no rot or rust issues anywhere.
 
Price I would like is £7k without the wheels. £9.5k with the wheels.
 
I do NOT have any other wheels to put on the car that would be legal to drive. So you would need to source and bring them with you. I do however have some Polo 9n wheels with bald tires if trailering.
 
ohseven7one7zero05nine8three is my number. I would prefer text as opposed to calls due to work commitments.
 
Any questions feel free to ask/post and I will do my best to answer them.

Me to. My plan was to see so many shows this year and yet I have not been to a single one. Due to work or family or weather etc....

 

I don't get to enjoy it like I used to, so it's about time to let someone else enjoy it.

 

I'm sure it could win a lot of shows again! :)  someone needs to buy this and keep it in the club!

 

Mark - have you ever thought of buying another VR6 that isn't so full on show mode? I hate to say it, something a bit more practical! :P

I have certainly thought about many things to replace it. R32 etc..... Whatever I do decide it will certainly be more practical !

 

Would love for the car to stay in the club and start winning shows again. That's what it was built for. Bodywork and paint alone runs into the tens of thousands. Only thing it's really missing is a smoothed bay and a charger !

 

Car will also come with an entire interior plastics set. The plan was to skin the lot in a piano black effect, much like the newer golfs. Tiring of carbon this, carbon that....

 

It also has an Alpine DVD screen/player fitted which I forgot to mention along with some Focal (I think) component speakers. The AudioBahn amp I will likely keep though.

Nope, no rear seats matching sadly. Although I do have a full black Highline interior in the garage if you wanted tom put that in and sell the one that's in it. But would be sad to pull it apart......

 

Plate has nothing to do with Jake either. He does have similar plates though for his Turbo. H20 VRT I think ? It's basically H20 for water, meaning water cooled. And VR speaks for itself. Nothing to do with his pool business :P

Still here !

 

Set of these wheels on eBay now for nearly £4k ! And not in anywhere near this condition. Shows how much the wheels alone are worth !

 

Needs to go fairly soon. Eyes are already on a new car. Someone give it a nice home :-(
