I wonder why it has earlier bumpers; possibly the earlier steel ones are easier (Possible even :!: ) to repair and you can't get replacement plastic moulded ones, of the type used on later (Roughly late 78 on, if my memory serves me right) Mk 1 Golfs :?:

Well observed - I missed that.

I guess it's to make it a little more "retro" looking. Nice car though, not over done like a lot of other Golfs of the same(ish) age.

If it was like that blue one then it's an Austin A40 . . . . . . .
