HISTORY FILE
Registered new on the 3rd June 1988, the supplying Volkswagen main dealer was Arthur Prince Ltd in Loughborough. The car has had four owners in total and covered 119,827 miles from new. The history file is huge and dates back to the original PDI checklist in 1988. The majority of the history file relates to the restoration that has taken place since the previous owner purchased the car in 2015. The huge file of invoices amounts to thousands of pounds in parts alone spent on the car whereby all bodywork, paint finishing, mechanical and interior work has been completed professionally and to a very high standard. Parts included to revert the car back to standard should the next owner wish consist of the standard exhaust system, braking components, rear light clusters, front indicators and side repeaters.
