Description

This 1986 Volkswagen Golf GTI is a French-market 16S example, and it shows 126k kilometers (~79k miles). Powered by a 1.8-liter DOHC 16-valve inline-four paired with a five-speed manual transaxle, the car is finished in red over gray cloth with striped inserts. It also features a rear window wiper, silver-finished 14″ wheels, power windows, and a factory cassette stereo. This small-window Mk2 GTI 16S is offered by the selling dealer in Paris, France, with a French carte grise registration document.

The car is finished in red with 16S badging, red-accented black bumpers and trim, and a 16 Soupapes window decal in each rear window. Additional exterior details include a rear window wiper, a black-finished grille with a matching VW badge, and yellow-tinted bulbs for the grille-mounted driving lights. Wear is visible on the left-rear wheel arch flare.

Silver-finished 14″ wheels are mounted with 185/60 Kleber Dynaxer HP3 tires. The front air dam features ducts to provide additional cooling to the front disc brakes. Photos show curb marks on the wheels.

The front bucket seats and the split-folding rear bench seat are upholstered in gray cloth with striped inserts. Appointments include a cabin heater, power windows, and a factory cassette stereo along with a heated rear window.

The four-spoke steering wheel frames a 260-km/h speedometer, a tachometer, and a digital clock along with gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The six-digit odometer shows 126k kilometers (~79k miles), 2k kilometers of which were added by the selling dealer.

The 1.8-liter inline-four features dual overhead camshafts with four valves per cylinder. Power is delivered to the front wheels via a five-speed manual transaxle.
