[Guy]

hi is thwere any way to find out how many of these cars were made ? and does anybody know of any on the road
cheers Pete

down the bottom of this page here: http://www.mk1vw.info/modules.php?name=Info&op=viewtut&id=118 you will find UK production figures for mk1 cabbys

you can find out how many are left here: http://howmanyleft.co.uk/?q=golf

I just cant get my head round these figures...... way too low... also don't understand where you differentiate between mk1 and 2 in the same year.. Am I missing something?

which ones... the production figures or how many left?

If it is a Black Edition, then not very many. As for how many that exactly is, I wouldn't know where to start short of sending a letter to Volkwagen.

According to this http://howmanyleft.co.uk/vehicle/volkswagen_golf_cabriolet only 11 cars for 85/86 are on the road in the UK.

          there's only one for 1985 that must be mine  ooooooh im famous

be interesting to see how many are still left in 6 years time when mine would be of equivalent age to yours now!

My Black Edtion GTi, C reg, 86 , I know the wheels are wrong but P-sl*ts ( Now with the center caps) is the way I roll 
It came with BBS RA on which are finding there way to one of my other cars. The seats are wrecked and are currently getting replaced with black leather / red piping
I keep meaning to check the paint code, must do that to touch up the bumpers

Oh and it now sports the correct grill which took a day out of my life to refurbish

Everything on the site to be honest. 2 golf cabs registered in 2010 are sorn?...  Here http://howmanyleft.co.uk/vehicle/volkswagen_golf_gti there are more 1983 golf sorned than any other, does this include early mk2?. it makes my year look like the least rare car ever, early mk2s are almost extinct until 89-90...
