Looking for a classic Volkswagen Golf Cabriolet with bags of character and ULEZ compliance? This 1980 model offers a unique opportunity for vintage car enthusiasts and those seeking an exemption from Ultra Low Emission Zone charges. Currently owned for three years, this convertible has been well-maintained, with recent work including brake renewal, water pump replacement, and electrical updates, ensuring it drives smoothly despite some cosmetic imperfections.

The car comes with a few interesting extras, including a potential engine and gearbox upgrade (available separately for £500) and a private plate valued at £500.
