I know that there are GTI golfs out there, pretty common, but has anyone got info on a diesel version (Mk1) known as the GTD? Pre 1990?

Sounds interstin,,,?

The GTD is basically a GTI, but diesel (GDL is the diesel GLS),, apparently very rare

Thanks for tip, will check sites out

So I take it nobody has ever seen one in Oz?

We've been discussing them for a little while now!
There's a few pics too.
