Dr. Dub's Storm site is back online. Of a fashion.

My good old' Storm site is back online. It's had a few updates, but nothing too exciting. The address is weird and some anti virus software may flag it as dangerous. Anyway, if anybody even uses this forum these days, here's the link. https://quizzical-wescoff-a5c0f3.netlify.app/ Tom D deserves a LO...

Re: Canadian Scirocco Slegato info sheet

The Slegato badges are on the B-pillars. The same as a Scala, GTX etc. I don't think they had rear discs. That was a 16v thing as far as I know.

The badges on the wings are Karmann logos. The same ones were used on Mk1 Golf cabs.

Canadian Scirocco Slegato info sheet

A very kind chap on the VW Vortex supplied me with the rear page of the mythical Canadian Scirocco Slegato info sheet. You may or may not know, the front side of it has been in circulation for years. Finally, after 15+ years of searching, we have a scan of the back. https://boyffq.db.files.1drv.com/...

Re: Scirocco Production Information

Tom could find Lord Lucan, drinking a gallon of Dodo milk, in Atlantis whilst chatting to Amelia Earhart with his amazing research skills. Lots of Scirocco info going back and forth between US and UK lately. Great work Tom. And as for the Slegato.....

Picked up this brochure from Ebay.

Nothing exciting. Just a 1977 spec sheet. What they classed as standard equipment as a selling point seems weird in 2021. I'm trying to get back some of my Scirocco mojo. Even though it's sat at a desk rather than in a car. So I'm doing it vicariously though VW literature. https://scuvna.db.files.1d...

This is a new Storm to me. Anyone else know of it?

Stumbled across this video on YouTube earlier. That looks to be a beauty. You have to wonder, how many more are stashed away. Some lucky guy/gal is going to enjoy that. Do yourself a favour and scroll on to 8.13mins in.

Fear not. I still have the whole thing on my hard drive and external drive. I just don't have the impetus to change to another server. I've mentioned before that if anyone wants to copy and paste the whole thing from what is online onto the Registers official site they are welcome to. I just wanted ...

Long story short. Talk Talk are garbage so I bailed and went to BT broadband. At least my site is still online I guess.
