Could anyone give me a good idea of how many MK2 Golf GTis were sold in the UK? I did a quick search but could find an answer.
Cheers

Lots :grin: & hello and welcome :afro:
-
Cheers. I need a figure preferably :laugh:
Really what I need to know is if the the MK2 GTi outsold the 205 GTi or not?
-
You would like to hope so
-
6.3 million golf mk2s were sold.....
-

I've read most of that matey matey stuff, not quite specific enough. I need to know GTis not just all mk2s.
-
VW sold 6161 in the first year according to that site but not sure overall

Have you asked VW's PR department? They're normally reasonably helpful on this sort of thing....
-
i know that there were 4 8v's sold for every 1 16v. probably doesnt help though...
-
Sorted! :grin:
Thought you all might like to know the figures
UK GTI sales.
MK1 17,039 Year 79-84
MK2 80,307 Year 84-92
MK3 39.766 Year 92-98
MK4 61,879 Year 98-04
MK5 18,223 Year 05-08

Did the VW PR dept come good then?
MK3 39.766 Year 92-98
That tells a (FAILING) story in itself.

Looking at it though; they sold an average of 8923 Mk2's per year and 8840 per year of the mk4's that's mental considering the mk4's not much better than the mk3!! imo!
-
dont forget a LOT of Mk4s were given away as raffle prizes :grin:
-
MK3 39.766 Year 92-98
that will help push prices up when the "rare" tag sticks :laugh:
-
Throw enough sh*t and something's gotta stick.
Golf2 Syncro's rare. Don't make them worth owt though.
-
MK2's FTW

MK1 17,039 Year 79-84 - 2840 p/year
MK2 80,307 Year 84-92 - 8923 p/year
MK3 39,766 Year 92-98 - 5681 p/year
MK4 61,879 Year 98-04 - 8840 p/year
MK5 18,223 Year 05-08 - 4556 p/year
Obviously rough calculations (based on inclusive years, ie 79 to 84 = 6 full years) and rounded up/down.
But that also shows that the Mk3 outsold the Mk5 per year. And certainly proves that the Mk2 and Mk4 were the most popular GTIs to buy new.
