New Milltek Classic Exhaust Elevates VW Golf Mk1 Cabriolet's Performance And Sound
Milltek Sport has expanded its range of OEM+ exhaust systems, targeting modern classics from the 1980s and 1990s. The latest addition is a new design for the Volkswagen Golf Cabriolet Mk1, just in time for the convertible season. This updated system is available in both resonated and non-resonated versions, enhancing the car's engine note while maintaining the original factory exhaust tip style.
The Milltek Classic range includes popular models like the BMW M3 E30 and Peugeot 205 GTI. These vehicles have seen a significant rise in value over the past decade. Milltek’s customers are now favouring factory-finish exhausts over larger, performance-focused ones. This shift reflects a desire to maintain the classic look while upgrading performance and durability.
All Milltek Classic systems are designed as ‘OEM+’, promising improvements in performance, quality, durability, and sound. Each product undergoes extensive re-engineering using the latest technology and manufacturing processes. The company’s renowned R&D process starts with the original ‘OEM’ exhaust system, identifying weaknesses through 3D scanning and testing.
Steve Pound, Managing Director of Milltek, highlighted the growing demand for their Classic range over the past two years. He noted that the Mk1 Golf Cabriolet has become particularly popular among customers. "Our designs are tailor-made for those looking to upgrade their exhaust's performance, sound, and durability," he said. "We keep a tailpipe design that doesn’t deviate too much from stock."
The development of the Mk1 Golf Cabriolet system reflects Milltek’s philosophy of ‘by enthusiasts, for enthusiasts’. Steve Pound’s personal Helios Blue example was used in design and testing work. This hands-on approach ensures that each product meets high standards of quality and performance.
Founded in 1983 by a car enthusiast in the UK, Milltek Sport has grown into a leading global manufacturer of performance exhaust systems. The company has headquarters in Derby, UK, a development centre near Germany’s Nürburgring race circuit, and a facility in Tennessee, USA. They cater to both modern performance vehicles and classic models from the '80s to '00s.
