GTI is one of Volkswagen’s iconic models that is now celebrating 40 years of existence. Built for the first time back in 1976, Volkswagen GTI represents a cue of performance and style that other world renowned automakers had difficulties in replicating. To celebrate the event, fansite gti35 offers a special edition watch with a rather lengthy name: “40 YEARS OF THUNDER – GTI 1976 – 2016”.
