Did you know the Mk1 Golfs originally had DRUM FRONT BRAKES on base models?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Did you also know that the original Mk1 Golf did NOT come with 3-way adjustable dampering coilover suspension?

Much love to @volkswagennl for making a Concept 20 Much love to @volkswagennl for making a Concept 2021 VW Polo Harlekin 💙💛❤️💚
 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s just a single fun one-off, but maybe if enough people bring their checkbooks @volkswagen could be persuaded to build more, as happened in Europe in 1995/1996.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The 2021 VW Polo is built in Spain, South Africa, Brasil, and China, so perhaps we can even dream about different markets getting them, if we’re really going to dream more about official Harlequins 🥰
⠀⠀⠀⠀
Well done to VW NL for this fun Concept and I assume @volkswagen.classic.de for getting it together an original Harlekin for the photos 👌

First USA wash for my Hellelfenbein Grandpa Mk3 Va First USA wash for my Hellelfenbein Grandpa Mk3 Variant 🍦
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Hellelfenbein R115 ‘Light Ivory’ is a famous and long running paint code, used by VW, Porsche, Mercedes, and many other manufacturers.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It was the required colour for German Taxis (by law from 1971 until 2005!), but also made its way onto factory Mercedes convertibles, Porsche 911s, and now hundreds of cars wrapped in 3M vinyl. And this car is original from the factory too, and not built as a taxi version.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This car was ordered and purchased new in 1995 by the owner (then in his ‘50s) who wanted ‘white but not boring white’. He owned it until he passed away late last year, always keeping it garaged and fully serviced. That’s why it still wears the original German ‘DIN’ plates that were never removed from the car.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s also because of this it’s probably the cleanest Mk3 I’ve ever seen in my life, and the fact that it’s such an obscure colour for a non-taxi car just makes me nerd love it even more. Well done and thanks to the man who ordered such a unique car and kept it so well looked after. 👏
Hydraulic Lift System from @kw_suspension getting Hydraulic Lift System from @kw_suspension getting installed right now at @blackforestindustries 🔧
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This will allow the car to be raised to go over speed bumps and into parking lots without affecting the dampening and spring rates of the coilover suspension 🤭🤭

I got to spend an amazing couple of hours with a German market car today, which is expected to be quite similar to the USA version that will be coming later this year. This specific car is from @stoll_automotive and it’s time in the USA will be fully shared and developed by the people at its final destination very soon, so stay tuned on the interwebs ❤️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The car really exceeded my expectations in terms of body lines and design once I finally saw it in real life, with the headlights and front bumper, and the entire dashboard and centre console areas really standing out. A great job by @klauszycioravwgroupdesign and co.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Big thanks to everyone involved and to @fcpeuro for hosting the brief visit 👏
