Rivage k plate with pics now keeping!
« on: 25 July 2011, 23:12 »
Hello just bought a blue rivage after selling my mk4 turbo Its a k plate and i think it totally original and its defo solid just wondering how much these normally go for? It's the cloth trim in a blue grey colour full t+t few small dents and scratches. Also do they normaly have cloth or vinyl roofs? Thanks in advance.

Need pics and a bit more detail to give you a what it's worth guide. :wink:

It should have a mohair roof if it's original.

The Rivage is a cabrio, hence the prev post re mohair roof. There were only 500 imported into the UK. Two colours blue or green. Leather or fabric upholstery. They have 'le castallet' wheels as standard (just google em). Two other options I know about were heated seats or air con. Yes air con in a cabrio, seems mad to me!
Mine is a J plate blue/fabric trim - 98K with a ton of history. Prices start as low as £500 for a real howler and can reach five figures for a show stopper. Beware of scammers who will dress up a standard cab as a Rivage to get to the higher prices. They will also be keen to knick your wheels for the same reason. Hope this helps :smiley:

All rivages came with heated seats. All greens had leather. The blues had an option of blue or dark grey interior.

Not sure about the ac as an option...go visit golf mk1 forum for guidelines.

Like mentioned it's all about condition, mileage and originality.

I have seen mint examples change hands for £4k...

I personally like the sportlines...in fact I love all mk1's...

Enjoy your new purchase.

Off topic, it's interesting that 2 new members post their first post to this.

Hi thanks for the reply's I'll try get some pics up at the week end. Love the car it's nice to have a older car for a change so easy to work on! Defo a 1993 rivage as it's stated on the log book but it has a light blue vinyl roof with black leather roof liner and hood cover grey heated seats with purple and green detail black carpet all original parts I think and most important not one spot of rust anywhere at all!
