Designation

‘Type 19’ Mk2 Golfs, known as such owing to the pre-designated #19 prefix on all their Chassis numbers, made its debut onto the European Market in March 1984 ( 1985 in the USA), and continued until August 1987 when things started to change..! Our Factory Builds are produced, and restored to Modern Day Commercial Standards. All our Builds begin their life with a Phosphoric Acid Dip, followed by E-Coating upon completion of all Fabrication. These vehicles are returned back to ‘As New’ Condition. We replace, and or restore, everything.

variants

Predictably, our Factory Builds tend to be that of the Mk2 Golf GTI Models. However, we have also seen an increase in cherished Family Owned Models of all types joining our waiting list for Restoration. In either case, our standards of Build are the same. A High Level of Commercial Completion, with Workmanship, and Component Warranties.

Factory

Preservation and Heritage. All our Factory Builds come accompanied with their Volkswagen Heritage Certificate.

We build each model specifically to the Factory specifications at the time of its birth. And why would we not, surely a Factory Build is just that?!

We utilise components and OEM replacement parts wherever possible, retaining its quality.

The Classic looks of the Type 19 Mk2, brought with it many similarities of it’s Mk1 predecessor. Notable differences being in its appearance.

Front Quarterlight Windows on the front doors, Small Bumpers, LHD Wiper locations, Seven Slat Front Grill, different, if not simpler, exterior badging.

Mechanical K-Jet, and Digifant Engines, side trim graphics – on earlier models – moving to thin plastic side trims. Mk1 Golf Handbrake levers! The list goes on..

But, we love all variants of the Mk2 Golf, so are happy to conduct Restorations on all models.

mechanicals

Coming off our very own Production line, as they once did in Germany, the vast majority of the Mechanical components are replaced for new*.

Our Engines and Gearboxes are reconditioned by time served specialists in our field. They are also treated to a Vapour Blast, Powder Coating, Gold or Silver Zinc Plating – to bring their appearance back to life. 

colours

Alpine White, Jade Green, Black, Mars Red, Helious Blue, Atlas Grey, Diamond Silver. We love them all.

NOVOL products are used throughout each of our Mk2 Golf Restorations. The only true Classic Car Scheme on the market today. Their Ceramic Clear Coat is superior, and will provide a high, long lasting shine and colour depth to your build.


* Where new items can not be purchased, or are not cost viable, the OEM parts will be reconditioned.
