This CX GTI has spent most of its life in the Hauts de Seine area. It was registered on September 30, 1977, when it had been bought new by a company manager from Suresnes and the ownership didn’t change until April 2019. Probably stored during the 2010s, this CX shows an incredible patina and is undoubtedly in original condition. Its current owner, a great fan of the model, succumbed to its charm, aware of the rarity of an example in such a condition. The mechanicals were overhauled so that the car could cover long distances. The engine was removed from the car, the 5 spheres were replaced, the fuel tank and hoses were changed, all 4 tires and engine mounts were replaced, and the injectors were overhauled. This GTI model wears a “regatta blue” livery known to all model enthusiasts, and that has a lovely patina. Its jersey upholstery with a matching Greek pattern is very rare because it was only offered for the model year 1978 and is particularly well preserved. There is every reason to believe that its displayed mileage of 83,750 km on the odometer is the original one, given the history and the condition of the car. It is extremely rare to find an example in such original condition. It can be the subject of a complete restoration, or even better to be preserved with its patina of time, offering you the best in terms of time travel.

The auction of this lot will take place on Friday 18 March 2022.
