A lot of car for an 80s icon that's fun to drive and good looking.
Costs
Parts very affordable and service costs reasonable.

Driving
An original GTi that you drive and control, not the car driving you with fancy electronic gadgets. It's FUN.
Performance
As expected from a true classic GTi, performance is legendary.

Reasonable for a GTi sports cabriolet.
