Why we love it:

We’ve said it before (literally) and we’ll say it again. Irish Green is one of the best colors you could have gotten on Volkswagen’s 2019 run of Golf R Spektrum cars painted very special colors. Yes, we’ve seen this car before. It transacted on Bring a Trailer late last year, and it looks like it ended up in the inventory of Wyomissing, PA dealer Bay 22.

Since then, it’s only logged about 50+ miles, and it’s got its stock wheels back (that we’d argue help the value and collectibility of the car). No dis on aftermarket wheels, they just don’t bring value on collector sites like Bring a Trailer.

Back to this Golf, it remains a very special car and a worthy pursuit for a Volkswagen aficionado. That it’s painted a truly tasteful Porsche heritage color only adds to that.

Despite evidence you may see here suggesting otherwise, Nogaro Blue as a paint color didn’t show up at Audi until the RS2 era. If you’re doing the math, that’s about a decade before this 1983 Audi quattro left the factory. Yet here it sits.
So how’d it happen? Auto Bordin, the Swiss dealer listing this car tells the story fairly comprehensively, and so we’re going to post the English translation below.
