Socks - GTI MK1
In 1974, a few Volkswagen staff members started developing a secret plan to make a sporty version of the Golf. Initially dubbed the Super Golf, it took a year for them to show the higher-ups their clandestine project. Having finally received the green light, it was immediately fast-tracked for a world premiere in September 1975 at the International Motor Show in Frankfurt. The media response was stellar, and in June 1976, the moderately priced GTI was launched in Germany.
