Current V5 present. Paperwork includes previous V5s, MOT certificates, and invoices.

The vendor has provided the following:

  • Date of registration: 29.11.91
  • The last of the MkII Golf GTi with power steering, BBS wheels and Oak Green paintwork
  • We have owned the car since new
  • It was on a SORN notice for many years, after my wife bought a new MkIV Golf GTi
  • I drove it occasionally after I retired, but it was used only as a reserve car, hence the low mileage
  • It has always been parked outside in the street or on our driveway, hence the bonnet damage from bird droppings and deterioration
  • It has been serviced fairly regularly and last passed an MOT in 2025
  • Interior roof lining replaced some four years ago after the original headliner sagged
  • Selling as we are both retired, only need one car, and the £12.50 ULEZ charge each time we use it makes it uneconomical to run
