MK4 Golf GTi with a difference - Bora front end
Bought my first Scooby last week so my Golf GTi is up for sale. I have owned this car for almost 4 years and it has one owner before me. I'm hoping to sell the car as she is as it seems a shame to split up the parts as they work so well together. I love this car and will really miss it when it goes, but it was time to move on to something a bit bigger and faster.
I converted the front end from Golf to genuine Bora panels in 2008 (direct swap as the chassis is the same) as I fancied something a bit different. The front bumper is a genuine obsolete part from the VW Votex accessories range. These are almost impossible to get hold of in the UK now, particularly with genuine grills as this has. I have never seen a car that looks the same as this at any of the VW shows I've been to.
The car has lots of service history and I have a folder of receipts for all the work that has been done. Cambelt was changed at 80k when I bought the car. It has always been a very reliable vehicle. The previous owner ordered the car from Holland through his VW dealer in order to get all the extras on the car for a better price, so its a great spec, I searched for a while to find a car with all the extras I wanted. First registration was in the UK so it is considered a UK car by insurance companies.
Spec is as follows.
Main Specs:
- 1.8 AUM with KO3s Turbo
- 150ps (147.9bhp) dyno'd last year which showed it to be running 146bhp, graph can be provided.
- 3 Door
- Fold flat rear seats
- Heated Recaro sports seats in great condition. (drivers side heated seat not currently working, as its summer I haven't looked into the cause of this yet)
- Climate Control
- Cruise Control
- Electric Sunroof
- Auto Wipers
- Sony stereo with 6 cd changer in boot
Modifications:
- Bora front end panels
- Very rare genuine Bora Votex front bumper.
- Weitec Hicon GT Coilovers
- BBS RC 18 x 8 Wheels (rare in this wider form), refurbished in smoked chrome September 2010, are in excellent condition and have carbon fibre BBS centre caps. New front tyres a couple of months ago.
- Milltek Cat Back resonated exhaust, with lifetime guarantee.
- Anniversary GTi side skirts
- Anniversary GTi rear valance
- Anniversary GTi rear spoiler
- Forge 007P Diverter Valve as a replacement for worn OEM Bosch part
- Engine unmodified/unmolested and runs great
- Mot til end of November
- Tax til end of October
- 120k service is due shortly.
I have temp insurance on the car for 2 weeks only as my original insurance expired, need a quick sale so £3500 ono
