This is a clean, well taken care of 1993 Collectors Edition Cabriolet - the last year of this body style. It sold new for $24,300 in 1993. Odometer shows 91,680 miles and is consistent with the CARFAX report. The paint is original with a few scratches and chips but has no dents or door dings. It still shines and looks good as shown in pictures. The top is brand new and the wheels are original - they have not even been reconditioned and have been fitted with new tires. The original tan boot is included and in excellent condition. The headliner is free of any tears and the tan interior is in great shape with a couple worn areas reupholstered with matching material. To compliment the interior - custom floor mats were fitted. All the gauges work as they should and this model came with heated seats and it has working cruise control. The original stereo was replaced with an Alpine unit and it sounds great - better than the OEM unit. Mechanically the car starts, runs, shifts and drives excellent. The timing belt and tensioner are new as are the plugs and wires. The a/c has been updated to 134 and blows cold. The drivers side axle was replaced, and new front brake pads installed. All the shift bushings were replaced, and receipts show recent new rear brake shoes, brake cylinders and emergency brake cables. This car could be driven anywhere without worries.
Like all of the vehicles I sell - this is not a PROJECT. I try to go through each car and fix or replace what is needed so that the new owner will be able to enjoy it without worrying about repair bills. If you have any questions, my name is Mark and I can be reached at 239-292-2370.
Here are several recent testimonials:

"I love the GTI I bought from Mark. The car was in fantastic condition and drives just as good as it did in 1984 - I'm amazed at how quickly it starts every time I turn the key. This was my first time buying a car sight-unseen (I live in California) but his communication was such that I never had any worries about trust at all. He's also been great about answering any questions I have and I know I can count on his help down the road."

“I purchased a 1989 Cabriolet from Mark for my wife, and we couldn’t be happier with our decision. Mark makes the used car buying experience very easy. He is only a phone call or text away if you have any questions about the vehicle or the process of purchasing a vehicle. It’s tough buying a car online, sight unseen, but Mark answered every single question I had honestly. It’s good to know how much pride he takes in working on these vehicles and that there are still trustworthy people to buy used cars from. Thanks Mark”.

“I couldn't be happier with the GTI. I have no reservations or regrets after purchase which is a surprise to most people. There's plenty of horror stories out there about people buying cars on eBay or other websites that don't see the car prior to purchase. Mark is different. I feel He's an honest guy and he went out of his way to help me with making it easy.”

“It's only been two weeks, but I am very happy with the Cabriolet which I bought for my wife. It had only 40,000 miles (Carfaxed) despite being a 1988, and the interior especially is immaculate. Best of all, Mark has been a great communicator. Any questions I have, he responds promptly. He doesn't just make the sale and then hide with his money. I know I can count on him regarding any questions I have today or six months from now.”

“I have been restoring old Volkswagens to original condition as a hobby for over forty years and have bought cars from many people. I take pride in making sure the cars are right when I am finished with them. I wanted to buy a water cooled Volkswagen that I could just drive and enjoy. The 1993 Volkswagen Cabriolet that I bought from Mark is a wonderful car and it is exactly what he described to me. I have to say that after all these years he is on my gold list of respectable people. These days when so many people are scamming others it is nice to know one who can be trusted and is very honest. Mark made my purchase a pleasure and for the first time I was able to buy a car without any worries!”
