1981 Volkswagen Scirocco GTi review from UK and Ireland
"A fantastic underrated pretty coupe"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Water pump heater pipe outlet corroded away, well it was 25 years old.
Fuel pump relay packed up after 12 years use.
General comments?
The ultimate Scirocco. Handles like a dream.
Wicked sexy looks and low slung down driving position.
Racy engine, sharp and responsive, it just wants you to put your foot down.
Beautiful slick gear-changing through a close ratio gearbox.
My car is not for sale ever ever ever!
