We love a MK2 Golf there's no denying it, so when we got the call to help freshen up this fine specimen before the show season ahead we already knew it would be a good week.
The car was in relatively good shape to begin with, so really just a deep clean, decon and single-stage were in order to get it looking its best again. We also had a helping hand from our friends at The Dent Men, and Aarron wrangled a few little dings out that we knew polishing would highlight.
Overall result: Pure Retro Perfection...
