VW Golf Gti Mk2 1983

What is your favorite car of all time?

The first change to the Golf Gti took place in 1983 with the introduction of the Mark 2 model. More rounded in shape than the original, perhaps the most obvious visual difference was the twin-headlight grille, although this had been a feature of the last of the Mk1 Gti's, the Campaign model. The still 1.8-litre engine now had a peak torque figure of 114ft-lbs at 3,100 rpm, its 112bhp being achieved at 5500rpm instead of 5800rpm. Disc brakes were now fitted all-round. Two years later a second Gti was added to the model line up in the form of the 139bhp 16V.

Humber Hawk 1, 2, 3, 4

What is your favourite classic car of all time?

For the first time since 1948, Rootes introduced an all-new Humber, this being the unit-construction Hawk saloon. Although it retained the existing Hawk's 2.3-litre four-cylinder engine and related transmissions, the structure and suspensions were new. Body-shells were pressed and assembled at the BLSP works in Acton, West London. An estate car derivative of the new Hawk followed in the autumn.
