So many good memories of tearing around Joburg in the later part of the 1990`s in my buddy`s 1.8 CTi...

[@GalimotoMedia]

Wonderful, and probably one of the most collectable Citis these days!

[@schalkvandermerwe3838]

This series is so good!
Someone I knew had a dark red / burgundy Citi with the same white bumpers and stickers. It was factory. It was the only one I ever saw in that colour. It lived in Ladysmith. I still remember the plate number, but won't post it here. I think it might have been an automatic - that part I don't remember.

[@GalimotoMedia]

Thank you for your kind comment - and that Citi sounds like something special!

[@russelltobias9828]

There was 1 Tornado Red MK1 Citi built for Avis #004 As all you know citi Mk1s came in black magic pearl and shadow blue. There is 1 in tornado red #004. This car was given to Avis as a token of apprecition between the 2 companies as Avis purchased over 20 000 citis from VW.

Wow, many thanks for this information. Was this documented / photographed anywhere as we'd love to include it in our (eventual) Citi Golf follow-up video?

[@LukeIyer98]

Really cool review series, the Shuttle in todays money is R147 900, and the Chico at R 136 169 priced very well I assume since it was so popular

[@GalimotoMedia]

Many thanks for your comment! 😊

[@miguelluigi]

Great series man, thank you very much!

Love your videos

[@GalimotoMedia]

Many thanks!

[@dennis.mashoto_____2]

This was a very interesting documentary in which I learned a lot about Citi Golf in general. Wow, however, the 1.8 needs to be the best.

[@GalimotoMedia]

Many thanks for your kind comment! 😊

[@tinusjacobs2345]

You missed one is the 1991 citi 1800 sport. It was white a Grey bottom side stickers and bumpers

[@GalimotoMedia]

Thanks for your comment, we'll research it for inclusion in our follow-up Citi video!

[@jean-paulolivier1124]

Hi. I liked this Documentary. I still have a CITI BLUES. It use to be Student car and is now part of the family. I would be interested when you want to talk to owners part4 of the documentary.

[@GalimotoMedia]

Glad you enjoyed it and keep looking after that Blues! 😎 We'll be in touch soon.

[@jayjaylee5858]

after the Velociti the ECU went from Mp9( one of the best VW made for 8v)to Mpi( problematic)

[@GalimotoMedia]

Thank you for that insight!

[@Sparhawk77]

Lol I've owned my CITI Golf for15 years. I'm not selling it. I might give it to my son one day

[@GalimotoMedia]

Excellent, a Citi Golf makes a cool first car!

[@solunasunrise]

they should ve imported them into germany .... we would ve bought this ... :D if it would have been possible to sell it to the germans for around 20 000 euros or less ... they would ve went well ... i would have favoured this over an MK5 golf

[@GalimotoMedia]

At some point the rental fleets in southern Africa used CitiGolfs, much to the joy of German / EU tourists! 😄

[@solunasunrise]

btw was an A/C availible as an option on a new car at some point ?

[@GalimotoMedia]

Yes it was, we're unsure when / on which models exactly though.

[@Helgardt6189]

Yes i have a 2007 city rhytm with aircon.

[@ArefaPhiri-pw1kj]
