@peteski No worries! Always nice to learn new stuff.

Thank you Peteski for the kind words! Yes, this is the Revell kit. I think it is a fairly new die (2014) and the box states it has been officially certified and vetted by VW AG. I think the kit is quite authentic when I compared to the 1:1 car, except for a few color errors. It is far better than any Revell kit I have build in the past, even bettering many Tamiya kits in my opinion. Thanks Oliver for confirming what the 'H' stands for. I didn't have any idea what it stood for.

Beauty! Clean build, could you show more details - engine, underbody ?

Sweet. Excellent paint job and details, especially underbody.

Sweet build and nice photo shoot set up - makes it stand out and gives a larger than life effect.

@espo Thank you Sir, will keep posting new builds!

@koellefornia-kid Thank you! Haha I ruined the one in the front. Thanks for the info , didn’t know the H had a significance. @crazyjim Thank you! @iamsuperdan Thank you for the kind words. I took my time to work on this, over a month and a half, so thought I might as well get the little details.

Sweet build! Very sharp.

@89AKurt: Thank you for the kind words! Yes, true seeing the online builds of the Golf II did not seem very encouraging. This one I believe is a more recent kit (2014?), so quality is definitely better. The Tamiya 959 seems good except there seems to be a gaping gap between wheel well and body. Need to figure out how to close it. Putty after mating the two body half is going to be tricky. Seems like a really old kit probably from the 80s.

Hello all Let me please introduce myself, I am Raul. New here and posting for the first time. Very excited by this forum and looking forward to learning from you all and sharing my models and experience too. I used to build models as a kid, but took a long hiatus and trying to get back to the hobby. Started off with a Mk 1 Golf GTI from Revell. The subject was interesting as I own a Mk 6 GTI at present. The kit is a great one, quite detailed at level 4. The fit and engineering is great and the details made me realize how many styling cues the present GTIs share with this my 1. Here are some quick and dirty shots. Hope to make better ones some time. Overall I enjoyed building this one and getting back to the hobby we all love. Now working on a Porsche 959. Feedback and comments welcome.
