    Good Points: The Scirocco is an awesome car with great build quality and strength. The cars aerodynamics truly makes for better fuel economy and power performance.


    Bad Points: Make sure that you check for any rust under the arches and door ledges and lips. Do not buy a carb model the injections are much more efficient and reliable. Arch space does not allow for larger alloy wheels.


    General comments: You could buy the carb model if you are planning this to be a project vehicle. Generally the Scirocco is just a car in its own league and class. Truly unmatched in design and quality. Amazing fuel economy on the injection models.

    This is my second Volkswagen Scirocco GTX 1.8 and it's the one in the pic) - there first one was a "normal" 1600CL model and not that tidy, but it got me hooked. I bought this 3 years ago and have had to do very little to it, just routine service jobs really. They are a bit heavy on front pads but that could be the way I drive. They are very good on tyres as they are a light car. I fitted a Jetex exhaust system 18 months ago and I am very happy with that too.
    I reckon I will be keeping this car ...

    The VW Scirocco GTX 1.8 goes like a bat out of hell, I chase anything on the road even if I dont stand a chance and I get to surprise a lot of people, my brother had the car from new and drove the guts out of it, I have had it the last 5 years and enjoy driving it every day,I have taken it drag racing at a RWYB event at North Weald dragstrip twice and gave standard sierra cosworths a run for there money !!

    Have owned my Scirocco for 6+ years now. At 18 it is needing a bit of welding but still is such a wonderful car to drive. From a girl racer to all boy racers this is one heck of a car and will leave lots standing due to the wonderful acceleration. Boys toys ha! Girls just wanna have fun too!
