Few personal touches I wouldn't have, but looks rather nice. Are they Wolfsberg alloys? Looks like the 'berg logo on the centrecaps but haven't seen those alloys before. Nice find :) and hope ya enjoying the sun ya b*stard  :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Nice!
When I was in Tunisia a few weeks ago there were loads of MK2 gtds, mk1 golfs and mk1 and mk2 polos, but they were all filthy and covered in dents :(

I saw quite a few in Spain when we were there last year. Because the climate is a lot drier, they don't rust or rot anywhere near as fast as they do in the damp UK.

In some parts of the UK a MK2 will spend more days wet or damp than it does completely dry, so a car making it to its 20th birthday is something of an achievement!
