Mk2 Golf 1988 16S "Match" - How Rare?

Have the opportunity to pick up a LHD, UK plated 16S "Match" (special edition)
Small bumper, BBS RAs, Rainbow seats, 3Dr, Digifiz, Electric windows, PAS.

(presumably not a UK spec?)





How rare are these to find? Only about 70k miles.

What value?

 

One million dollars!!!!

 

If it's a genuine 16S that means it's an Oettinger 16V engine which is super rare, French market only I believe.

 

Didn't realise the mk2 ever came with an Oettinger engine?

 

I dont think it's Oettinger - the engine looks like any stock 16v.

In french, Valves=soupapes, hence 16S, I believe.

 

Silly me, 16S Oettinger is a Mk1, must pay more attention Foxy!

 

I would have it looks awesome if it is a genuine one it is going to be rare

1 the mileage
2 UK plate LHD
3 the Digi dash

 

Its deffo original. I dont think the headlights have even been converted to RHD!

Only missing item is 16s grille badge.

 

I didnt buy it.........

 

why?

 

I'm too tight........4 figures was too dear, although not bad for a keeper.

Have my eye one something else now.......that's gemini's!

 

Its on ebay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-GOLF-m...3902925?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item460523304d 1950 need s a damn good clean and a lot of TLC

 

They paid a bag of sand for it........

 

Yeah i would not pay over 1000 cat c too

 

I was happy to pay 750 for it but thats it. I always look at the value of the parts and base a price on getting my money back if I broke it.
Cat C isn't really an issue for older cars - condition becomes more important as the years roll on.
