      Always worthwhile keeping your ear to the ground amd seeing if one comes up at the right time and right price. Prices are all over the place right now, so you could potentially find a bargain.

      They are. I do love a Rallye, but it's very hard to justify that price tag when you consider what else you could buy for that sort of money. Not particularly quick by modern standards (or even Mk2 Golf standards) and there's not any actual rally heritage. They do look great though!

    • @golfmk2
      @golfmk2  Před 4 měsíci

      Pretty much any Special Edition Mk2 Golf is rare now. We didn't get the Tour in the UK, so I'd be interested to know what differences it has to a standard 1.3.

      @@golfmk2 The Tour was a special edition available in 5 metallic colours:
      Diamond Silver
      Metallic Red LA3Z
      Helios Blue
      Atlas Grey
      Cosmos Blue
      The car had colour coded mirrors, and some text also says part painted bumpers although the brochure clearly shows it hasn't. Also states colour coded mirrors were not included on Atlas Grey or Helios Blue but I find that an odd thing to believe - surely it would be all or none?
      As with all of the 'specials' there was an decal on the rear quarters panels, this lead into full length pinstripes just above the swaige line.
      The car was in luxury spec, similar to GL model.
      Available in 3 and 5 door
      Interior equipment:
      Specific upholstery in blue / red fabric on a light gray background
      Height-adjustable headrests
      Plush carpet
      Passenger side vanity mirror
      "Imitation" leather gearshift gaiter and gear knob
      Plush carpeted parcel shelf and side shelves
      Sport steering wheel (is listed but from the brochure image I'm not sure, did they consider this 'sporty'?)
      Analog clock (digital LCD for 90hp, with rev counter),
      Center console with ashtray and cigar lighter
