Before becoming an official Toyota and then Mitsubishi driver, Kenneth Eriksson enabled Volkswagen Motorsport to shine in the World Rally Championship in two-wheel drive with the Golf Gr.A. In 1986 and 1987, the Swede put in a string of performances, taking numerous class wins.

In 1987, the first year of the advent of Group A at world level, Eriksson even took his Golf to 4th place in the World Rally Championship behind the 4-wheel drive cars of Kankkunen, Biasion and Alen.

A fine replica of Eriksson’s 1987 Gr.A Golf, this Volkswagen, presented by its owner Roger Halm at the Alsace Rallye Festival 2023, is the result of a meticulous restoration carried out between December 2022 and July 2023.
