Description
It has been the dream car of many 18-year-old driver's license newcomers to the baby boomer generation. The Golf I as a GTI had that, WAS one wanted at the time: A compact sympathy car like the golf and a machine that could quite turn up. In view of their reduced color palette, the GTI was quite conspicuous. The Lemon yellow that Wiking chose this time looks very special, but the bright colors were set for the first generation of Golf GTI. The traditional model builders have converted the exterior into 1:87 prototypical. The radiator grille carries the fine silver GTI letters and is moved from a red frame. In addition, the black decorative stripes, window borders and door handles are also converted as is the rear-sided logo "Golf GTI". Wiking turns the Golf GTI of the first generation into a model-based jewel, which reminds as reminiscence of the model Wolfsburg. The 110 hp machine made the Golf as flimsy as no other standard compact car until then.
