VW Golf 1 (1974-1983) - Modellgeschichte, Kaufberatung, Pannenhilfe (Passion Oldtimer)
Under the series title "Passion Youngtimer", this Schneider book describes in detail the model history of the first Golf, Jetta and Caddy generation, including various sports and tuning variants. Since even the youngest Golf I models are 30 years old, they now have classic or youngtimer status and are increasingly sought after. A purchase guide provides useful tips, followed by a table with market prices.
The technology of the Golf I is simple, but still complicated enough for classic car rallies or everyday use. The book therefore contains extensive, precise information on all common maintenance work in the areas of bodywork, engine, drive, chassis, brakes, etc. - indispensable at home in the garage and in the event of a breakdown on the road. Breakdown guides are integrated into the chapters on the main components.
The book also explains - in a way that is easy to understand for laypeople and beginners - the basic functions of classic car technology, starting with the brakes, fuel supply and clutch, through to cooling, wheel suspension and ignition. This is followed by tables with technical data, setting values and torque values for the Golf I. Circuit diagrams and a keyword index are also included.
Describes all Golf I models (1974-1983), others up to 1993.
Versions: petrol, diesel, GTI, convertible, Caddy and Jetta I.
