The second owner was based in Adelaide and purchased the car around 20 years ago from Classic Throttle Shop. During this ownership, the car remained in Adelaide, was carefully maintained, and kept in excellent condition.
In 2023, the car received a major refresh including:
• Full fluid service throughout
• New spark plugs and ignition coils
• Replacement of rubber seals and wear items
• New Michelin PS4S tyres (2023)
• Targa glass roof rebuild completed in 2023 at a cost of approximately $14,000 — functioning perfectly with no structural issues since
In June 2024, the TT1 Tiptronic S transmission was professionally rebuilt due to the known weakness of the original gearbox design. Since then, I have also upgraded the head unit, completed a full ceramic coating treatment
The car has been faultless during my ownership, with no mechanical issues whatsoever. I have completed two engine services and two transmission services, with supporting records available.
The black paintwork presents beautifully and remains in outstanding condition.
I have driven the car only 5,000 km during my ownership due to frequent work travel. I recently relocated to Brisbane, while the car remains on South Australian registration. As it has been sitting unused for too long, I have decided to offer it for sale.
A comprehensive inspection was completed on 5 May 2026, and the car was found to be in excellent condition.
Please note: this is an automatic Targa, not a manual. Please make sure you are comfortable with that before arranging an inspection. Open to negotiation, but offers must be reasonable.
