Another early Mk2 you'd love to get your hands on, eh Russ?

Busted! Is it that obvious...

Many thanks, this is all good information. There is 2 stickers in the back quarter window. One that is circular that says Wolfsburg edition and another that says scirocco register and as you say the back badge is (scirocco gti) but the pillars have GT on them. My V5 has GTI on it also. Nice to know from you knowledgeable chaps it sound like a good one and any further information you can rustle up is hugely appreciated. Thanks again

Hi Scott,

Oh I say! You do indeed have an original unmolested (aside from the iffy paint job) 1983 GTi. I think you may have realised by now (!) what you have. I'd love to make you an offer right now for her but that's not fair considering what has been shared here.

PM me if you're still interested in selling.

Apologies Ross, I am having difficulty replying.
It may be I am not following forum etiquette. Please advise

Hi.
That seems to have gone through ok. Unfortunately my skills with these modern telephones and computers are to be desired to be able to PM you . Im not a member of social media either if that’s relevant to the PM thing. I would be interested in your thoughts on the current value and certainly a bid on the vehicle once you have some more photographs to be better informed. I am however fully trained in picture messages from my phone .

Hi Scott,

I know what you mean, I regularly enlist help from a 'youth' myself! It's wonder I can do what I do for a living in this day and age...

Feel free to text or call me and we'll go from there;

07599 643352

Failing that: russell.b.robson@gmail.com

Cheers

Hello Scott1980

Any thoughts? I can send you an address / phone / email / fax / carrier pigeon...

Russ

Ahh carrier pigeon preferably please ha ha, great thank you. Apologies for the delay in getting back to you.
The car is sitting in storage a mile up the town at the auto body place where I had asked for a cost on the paintwork. I’m popping in tomorrow to take some photos I’d appreciate your thoughts on. I’ve booked the car in for an MOT on Tuesday again as I’ve checked and it is out which I’d be doing regardless so fingers crossed . Many thanks

OK Scott, no worries.

If you can get in touch by e-mail I'd be happy to come and give her a once over for you to see what needs to be addressed. No questions asked. No cost.

Please send me any photos Scott.

I completely understand if you don't wish to part with her, happy to instil what knowledge I have gained from the wonderful people on this forum to help you get to wherever you'd like to see her.

The main reason this forum exists is for like minded people to help each other out and to preserve these now very rare automotive icons!

Best

Russ
