Thanks, there doesn't seem to be any for sale right now in the uk.

Hi Guys,

Looking for A Mk1, I last owned a 1.6 gls in gold 10 years ago and would love to find another Mk1

please let me know of any cars that may be available, thank you :)

Excellent post, a great explanation - FWIW I agree with everything you have said.

Made a new thread this afternoon in "mk1 scirocco" & seems to have disappeared? it hasnt been moved either?

thanks

I'm selling up for this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/golf-gti-6-wheeler-pick-up-/251084054398?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item3a75c69f7e :shocking: :shocking: :shocking: :shocking: :shocking: :shocking: :shocking: :shocking: :shocking: :shocking: :shocking: :shocking: Great Find :hugegrin: Im going to ...

But all this talk of prices rising dramatically and them being worth the money that's being asked in some places is frankly hilarious. I'd love a mk1 over the mk2 any day of the week, as would most of the people on here but the scarcity of parts twinned with the frightening reality of rust issues w...

I was looking through the amazing pics on here of bromley pageant(The biggest one day classic car show in the world) ( over 3000 exhibitors!) and thinking to myself there must be one of everything here no matter how rare.... then i noticed no pic of a mk1, so i asked the question to the mk2 guys on ...

Great debate. As much as Ant and I have aspired to increase the profile of both the Mk1 and the Mk2 over the last few years (I think that's happening) not totally sure it's down to the SR to ensure values increase, although we have had some success when dealing with insurance companies who were on ...

You might also find that you need to revise your expectations of what it's worth. £3000 or thereabouts is the going rate for a completely solid (no rust at all) Storm/GTI with a long MoT and good service history, in generally very good condition inside and out. Something solid enough to get an MoT,...

Ive often thought the same, for the Mk1 2 doors and 2 wings perfect cond, no rust at all will set you back best part of 1k! I dont buy the rust thing as a negative to the mk1, to me all it means is that if you have a rust free one then it should make it all the more desirable, the series 1 mk1 golf ...

That is of course your opinion, personally I think you are talking bollocks, but then that's my opinion.

Thats cool

Its a good point some mk1 owners would have had a mk2 first, im 33 and for me I do not ever remember the Mk1 growing up but I do remember the Mk2. To be honest I only discovered the Mk1 scirocco when learning all about the Mk1 golf, I didnt really know of it I always associated scirocco's with the M...

That's some really interesting figures, explains a lot, cheers guys Dare I say it but IMO the Mk2 has been the downfall of the Mk1, it tarnished the scirocco name, its styling wasn't anywhere near as good as the Mk1. IMO the Mk1 is massively underrated now because of the impression the MK2 has left ...

Great post & great points about the golf Edmunator. Does anyone know the actual sales figures of Mk1 Scirocco's? Or what were they compared to the golf? I think rarity is important but then the car needs to be defined as you say with the golf being the "hot hatch" The 2cv is a great ex...
