Had a Mark 1 Sirocco Storm as a company car (shame your photo is of a Mark 2) in the metallic green / black leather interior. Truly great car to drive, very quick but very forgiving... Must remain one of the real classic shapes ever, despite it's high engine inherited from the Golf. Even the front spoiler looked perfect! Mine had a pull-out glass roof (useless) electric windows (added, and slow) and foglights. Only problems were clutch cable pulling through the bulkhead and losing a valve follower one morning. Started to show signs of tin-worm in the doors even after three years. However, has to be one of the few cars I really remember.
