Hi All,
I have been offered a 2000 1.8 turbo GTI which is badged ABT and appears to have a full ABT body kit right down to the door lock buttons and floor mats along with the Recaro leather seats and 18rims.
The engine has been heavily breathed upon and goes like stink. It is a little laggy, but has been off the road for nearly a couple of years so I suspect will go better after a full service, new discs all round, etc.
My apprentice, who regularly worships at the VW altar, thinks it may be a full original ABT conversion, although he says they are very rare.
What should I be looking for to establish if it is a full ABT conversion?
If it is, what sort of value would it have?
Any pointers would be appreciated.
