Some press cars may have landed in the period leading up to Xmas 81.
Nice info thanks for replying, mine is on an X so fairly close to the start of official imports.

When was Scirocco launched in uk?

An easy one for the experts on here, when was the mk2 launched here in the UK?

I received my V5C today and it was registered in July 82 I was wondering how early it was.

Re: New Member 83 GL Auto

Hi all, Firstly, great website, lots of useful info! Just purchased what appears to sadly be a rare model, an 83 GL Auto. This was my first car back in 1990, although that was a Cosmos Blue example with reg JGE 600Y (Glasgow) which fell off the radar back in 1998. I had it for three years and had ...

Re: New to Sciroccos

Just as an aside while I'm sitting here with a coffee, is there a m plate decoder for the scirocco? I know on the old buses and campers there is a site where you input all your m plate data and it gives you build date, options etc. Does such a thing exist with these cars? I'd love to know how early ...

Re: New to Sciroccos

An '82 car will have lots of Mk1 (Scirocco/Golf) bits. The Haynes is mainly based on the post-'85 models. Your car wouldn't ever have had the expansion tank. Yeah, I'm finding that, luckily I have had a couple of gti's in the past so have various books to help me out. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn ...

Re: New to Sciroccos

This car will be an epic build, who knows what else youll find All sorts of things every time I touch it [emoji16] Today I noticed it does not have an expansion tank fitted, the Haynes book of lies states I should have one and a sealed radiator, but I have no tank and a filler on the rad???? But ...
