Spotted a few whilst out and about this week...highlights were -

Pearl Green Mk2 with Gti lights going north on the A338 through Porton just north of Salisbury on Sunday pm.

And a mk1 parked up in Castle Street Salisbury on Monday (well there was in 1984, as a pic in the Mueseum showed)

Nick, I think I may have seen you near McDonalds on the Mottram roundabout at the end of the M67 last week. Whereabouts in Manchester do you live? I'm in Burnage.

That's my Dads Scala "Jake", he also has the red with gold metal flake 2.0L on carbs that would have been parked nearby. (And it's a "Scirocco UK" sticker ;) )

Two:

Saw a Brown Mk2 Storm near Croydon, London on Monday afternoon.

A friend of mine spotted what he described as a nice mk2 than mine in Purple, parked in the conservative car park in Nottingham - anyone on here?
Four Sciroccos, four gone, but at least I know all parts from most current one went to good homes....
