    :D:D:D what a car! any idea is of price? is it a rebuild of the original engine or is it the latest one? only downside is i couldnt see a gti version there!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 906 ✭✭✭FuzzyWuzzyWazza


    yeah GTI would be nice, probably come along later if this takes off in a big way. Then there might even be a convertable!!!

    I'd guess these are South African imports.

    Love the golfball gear knob :)

    What a terrible website though!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 71,188 ✭✭✭✭L1011


    Has to be a South African CitiGolf import - not *quite* a Mark 1 Golf, its been refined repeatedly.

    I had a mk1,2 not a 3 but i had a mk4 Golf in GTI and GT Tdi form -The Mk1 was my fav..........should never have sold it......

    Interesting alright.Theyve taken the upper part of the dash from the old skoda fabia.Any idea of a price???.The bit at the bottom indicates that you can get a 1.4 and 1.6 with a carburreter:eek::eek: and a "fuel-injected" 1.8.If i've got my facts right the only mk1 with injection was the gti.An 08 mk1 gti would be MASSIVE respect IMO!!!

    Clearly from south africa(look at the very bottom)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 71,188 ✭✭✭✭L1011


    Its not a GTI. Go to VW South Africa and look at the specs there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 73,522 ✭✭✭✭colm_mcm


    would VRT on one be based on MK5 prices?

    Doesn't really work with Firefox. Try IE


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 73,522 ✭✭✭✭colm_mcm


    they're South African models alright. says so on the spec sheet.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,461 ✭✭✭Max_Damage


    They are called the Citi Golf, and they are indeed made in South Africa. There is a few in this country, I've seen one with a 02-D plate & another with a 98-D plate.

    Hell, even the Peugeot 504 was made in Kenya only up to about 3 or 4 years ago.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 73,522 ✭✭✭✭colm_mcm


    Going on the prices they charge for beetles, don't expect them to be much cheaper than new Mk5 Golfs.

    my mate owns an 82 mark1 golf, he was in SA last year and hired a brand new mark1, he said it was so much more refined but he'd rather his anyday

    The closest you'd get to a Mark 1 GTi now is the new Citi-R found below:
    1.8i 8v - 120hp
