The Golf GTI celebrated its 25th birthday with a limited-edition model of the GTI. Bearing the designation GTI 337, this is a Golf like none before. It had a 1.8-litre turbocharged engine, 18-inch BBS alloy wheels, Recaro sports seats and a great many more technical details which made this model yet another highlight in the history of the GTI.

With its new appearance, the special model Golf GTI was a real eye-opener. The modified bumpers at the front and rear, the large alloy wheels with 225/40 R18 tyres, the widened sills, the rear spoiler and rear apron all combine to give a sporty overall impression. The absolute highlight was the 1.8-litre, 4-cylinder engine with twin overhead camshafts, 5-valve technology, turbocharger and intercooler which was mated to a 6-speed manual gearbox

A glance at the interior reveals aluminium-coloured sill panel trims, complete with GTI logo, and ergonomically shaped Recaro sports seats. These also bear the brilliant red GTI logo, as does the backrest of the split rear seat. The instrument cluster consists of round dials with a modern, aluminium look - a large speedometer and rev counter and smaller coolant temperature and fuel gauges. The centre console and interior door handles are finished with decorative trims made of brushed aluminium. With their perforated leather and red stitching, the steering wheel, the handbrake and the gear lever gaiter all hark back to the original GTI of 1976, as does the gear lever knob in the design of a golf ball. This Golf GTI was only available in a two-door version with Tornado Red, Reflex Silver Metallic or Black Magic Pearl-effect paintwork. It went on sale with a limited production run of 1800 units.

This particular example is finished in Reflex Silver and was first registered on 1/10/2002. It's had just one keeper and the indicated mileage at the time of viewing was an unrepeatable 8 miles!! It's just been recommissioned including its 'first' Pre Delivery Inspection by a VW Dealer

This is an opportunity that may never rear its head again, a true one off and your inspection is highly recommended to appreciate the rarity on offer.
