This 1992 Volkswagen Golf GTI is a remarkably well-preserved Mk2 example finished in Tornado Red (LY3D) over a black and grey GTI interior, showing just 102,753 km from new. A two-owner car supported by its original owner’s manual, service booklet, matching keys, and extensive recent servicing, it represents the kind of unrestored, factory-correct GTI that collectors increasingly struggle to find. Equipped with a 1.8-liter 112-hp engine paired with a 5-speed manual transmission and featuring factory air conditioning, this GTI has also recently passed MOT and emissions testing, with validity through November 2026, and carries a historic (H-plate) registration.
The exterior presents in classic Mk2 GTI specification, retaining its original dual-lamp grille, GTI badging, fog lights, roof spoiler, and wheel-arch extensions. It rides on its correct 15-inch BBS RA375 alloy wheels, fitted with four brand-new tires during the most recent service. The Tornado Red paintwork remains vibrant, and the body is described as entirely rust-free—an increasingly rare trait for a Mk2, particularly one still wearing its original factory components. All trim, moldings, and glass, including the GTI-specific rear window surround, appear consistent with a well-preserved, unrestored example.
Inside, the cabin remains in clean, original condition, featuring model-specific sport seats, the factory GTI steering wheel, a black headliner, original parcel shelf without speaker cutouts, and the MFA on-board computer. Power windows and air conditioning further elevate the specification, making this a highly desirable, well-optioned example from the final years of Mk2 production. The interior materials, panels, and trims present with minimal wear, consistent with careful use and long-term collection storage.
Mechanically, this GTI benefits from a major service completed on July 5, 2024, at 102,624 km. Work included a new timing belt and tensioner, fresh engine oil and filter, new spark plugs, air filter, front and rear brake discs and pads, new brake hoses, a complete brake fluid flush, new exhaust system, coolant expansion tank, driveshaft boot, valve cover gasket, both fuel pumps, rear shock absorbers, and new wiper sets front and rear. All four tires were also replaced. Since this service, the car has remained in a private collection.
