Content description.....

Right from its launch in 1975 the Volkswagen Golf GTI was the blueprint for the Hot Hatch. Now on its fourth generation, the Golf still combines performance and good looks with practicality, and has become one of the most modified cars on the planet. Volkswagen set themselves a difficult task when they looked to replace the multi-milion-selling Beetle, but they hit on a magic formula that became the even more popular Golf. Often copied, but never beaten, the Gti marque has gone on to sell more units than many other manufacturers can manage for a whole model range. This fascinating and informative book from motoring writer and Golf nut, Andy Butler, sets out to give a flavour of the Golf GTI in all its forms. In addition to a model history and details of all GTI variants, the book also has practical advice on what to look out for when buying a Golf, as well as engine tuning, performance upgrades, and cosmetic modifications. Everything, infect, to help you get the very best from your chosen GTI.
