1988 Scirocco Scala 1.8l Auto – £1900 ONO – Sheffield Hey All, Up for sale is my 88’ Scala, It’s Been my pride and joy for the past few years and now unfortunately due time constraints and a change to my work commute etc it’s up for sale. I wish I had a big garage to store it for a later date, but a ...

Thanks for the reply and the advice, you pretty much confirmed what I thought really and I think that's what I wanted. After much deliberation, I decided to just get a good compromise family car and daily driver and to just keep the Rocco as my project / Summer / weekend car. Especially after ...

hey all, I'm currently looking to make the rocco into a more reliable long term daily driver. Currently its a 1.8l carb EX with an ancient 3-speed auto & im a little tired of things like the choke, starting issues (despite being re-built and all well serviced and tuned up), the only half decent ...

I've checked the wiring, bulbs and connections, it was the first thing I did. But like I said before, Im getting really weird results. for a sec this morn I thought it might be a bulb or connection as i took the working high beam pod (wires and bulb etc) and fitted it on the drivers side that wasn't ...

OK, Just been out and had a look. The switch seems fine, doesn't smell and visually looks ok. Also, I decided to check them again just in case it was a one off bit of water or something and have found a pattern now. basically the side lights and dipped main beams work fine, so the switch seems to be ...

Hey guys! Thanks for all the responses! I will give your suggestions a try and get back to you in a sec. With any luck it will just be the switch and I can just swap it out.

Cheers!!! Gotta love the forum!

Hey guys, need some help please. Getting the rocco ready for mot next week and on the road again for summer. Anyway all was well and everything was working, i had just checked all the lights and they were all fine but then just 5 mins later when i was double checking the fronts again with the help ...

Hey all, I'm looking to do a 2.0l conversion on the rocco and want to go down the Audi bubble block route for ease. I've seen from various threads as well as the conversion options on here that the Engine code to use is '3A' but am having trouble finding one. So the question is are there any other ...

What Color / paint code is this redlee?? its really nice!

No worries mate!

Ok, managed to find a couple of pics from when I bought the car before the lights were done as well as a couple from just after I did them. Unfortunately, the before pics are crappy quality so its hard to see the yellowing on the lights, you can just about see it especially on the drivers side but I ...

OK, will try and find the pics tomorrow night. Also forgot to mention that I started the process with 800 & 1600 grit wet and dry just to get the top layer off and remove any scratches / chip edges etc. Still took less than an hour.

I used some Halfords Rubbing compound with a rotary polishing machine (wet sponge head), followed by some fine polishing compound and then a good buff with a wool bonnet on the polisher and finished with a microfiber cloth by hand on a Clio I had that had really bad yellowing on the lights and it ...

hmmm... never thought of checking that way, can't believe i didn't think of that! gutted if it doesn't, it all seemed like a great idea in my head.

Cheers!

It did cross my mind for a brief second as I scrolled past, before I took a closer look.
