My Black Blue MK2 Golf GTI 16v

Hi all!

Here is my '90 Big Bumper 16v GTI.

I purchased the car back in June. It came with a large history file comprising original sale invoice, every MoT from 1993 onwards, owner's handbook and the original covered key exclusive to the 16v model.

It is finished in the rare colour of blue black (code L52M) which from a bit of research I believe was a special order colour and was only available for one year?

Here's some pictures of when I first bought her...

Welcome

Tis real nice that

 

The next day it was ready for a thorough detail which consisted of decontamination, washed, two stage polish and then coated with Autofinesse Illusion wax, the pictures speak for themselves really...

 

No major changes over the summer, just enjoyed the weather and the car! A few OEM & period correct bits added (because I'm a purist)

The original Grange Motors dealer plates the car came on were very tired so I had them replicated and new ones printed...


Center cap decals replaced...


Period correct replica tax disc (the earliest genuine one I had for the car was 2004)


Hella Spotlight stickers, Volkwagen Alarm Warning stickers along with the correct engine bay stickers...




Managed to find an unopened First Aid Kit to go in the boot...


Retro goodies...



And a picture from a local show in summer...

 

Gorgeous bit of kit.

 

Amazing MK2 !!!

 

Surely that's not original paint? Lovely car.

 

Stunning car

 

Period correct replica tax disc ?

Very OCD but a lovely touch.

Car is impressive too.

 

Few updates coming for 2017, adding a few 90's touches.

First off after a lot of searching and patience a set of Azev A's came up in the sizes I wanted them (16" x 7.5J) - only a 3 hour drive to Wales to get them lol

Next is to get them refurbed and some new rubber ready for the better weather! I have spoken with a very nice lady at Azev and got the factory silver paint code to keep it original.

Also managed to get hold of a genuine Kamei Grill Spoiler from Germany after seeing a picture of one on an old GTi Engineering car.

 

That car originally came from dealers near me!

 

Chelmsford, Essex I believe without looking at the old paperwork ?

 

Fitted the freshly painted Kamei grill spoiler today. Also test fitted the Azev's and photoshopped what the car should look like with the Eibach Pro Springs on, what do you guys think?

 

I quite the original ra's on it

 

Where ya get that? Wouldn't mind one for mine.

 

Your car looks stunning, really like the paint colour - great work

 

Nice car
Few wee bits ..

That engine Sticker is for an 8v gti




Drop the grill badge down one slat
