Market Find: Volkswagen Spektrum Prussian Blue Metallic Golf R
Will·
The CarFax may not be the cleanest, but this Volkswagen Spektrum Prussian Blue Metallic Golf R is quite likely the cheapest we've seen so far. Benefitting from one of the more tame Spektrum colors, it could be the ideal daily driver for someone who just wants to blend in while also being an outlier.
Euro Market Find: Jazz Blue Volkswagen Bora VR6 4Motion Wagon
Does a perfect spec qualify as tailored? We can debate the issue, but I tend to land on the side of yes, assuming the desirability of a car finely and perfectly specified from a robust factory order book represents a different sort of tailoring. It's the sort of thing that goes with budget cars, from companies that don't typically offer tailoring services. Nevertheless, cars like this are special and it's with that in mind that we present to you this Y2K Volkswagen Bora.
Market Find: Volkswagen Spektrum Squirrel Grey Golf R
Will·
While not the most staggering of all Golf R Spektrum statistics, we're somewhat surprised at the rarity of Squirrel Grey. Just 6 Volkswagen Spektrum buyers opted for a color that's equal parts unique and inoffensive. Perhaps it was the dull, pastel grey's similarity to so many other colors that were then- and still are now- somewhat in vogue.
Market Find: 2019 Volkswagen Golf R Spektrum in Copper Orange Metallic
Though VW doesn't have a tailor of their own, most regular readers of this website should by now know of the Golf Spektrum run of cars. Back in 2019, VW built a large collection of Golf R models painted in micro batches of unobtainium colors. These cars command a premium and are highly sought after when they come up online.
Market Find: Great Spec Meyers Manx Dune Buggy on Cars and Bids
Kit cars as tailored drivers? We think the Meyers Manx qualifies. The team at Meyers Manx is bringing back the brand with some amazing products and plenty of special options to make tailored builds. On the other end of the spectrum, there are still individuals and dealers creating new builds of their own.
Market Find: Volkswagen Spektrum ’91 Blue Golf R
Will·
What's the origin of '91 Blue? We don't really know, but it's not that we haven't tried to figure it out. We even reached out to a member of the product team at Volkswagen who made the cars happen. Here's what we got.
Market Find: Volkswagen Spektrum Sarantos Turquoise Golf R
Will·
Tailored Driver has covered the one-year-only Volkswagen Spektrum Golf R models in the past, but this one is a bit special. Sadly not present at last weekend's gathering of R's called "Wookies in the Woods" and held annually near Robbinsville, NC- where many Spektrums were present- this particular car has plenty of VW event history.
EU Market Find: Volkswagen Mk1 Cabriolet Toscana in Rare Copper Metallic
For the most part, Volkswagen doesn't have an in-house tailor, but this German economy brand is rife with special editions, ranging from sticker pack mediocre to truly special. We'd weight the Golf Cabriolet Toscana special edition more on the truly special side of that spectrum.
Market Find: 2018 Volkswagen Spektrum Copper Orange Metallic Golf R
Will·
One of the more rare Volkswagen Spektrum hues, paired with an old-school 6-speed manual transmission, this Golf R is an exceptionally engaging Tailored Driver at a fairly safe price point.
