Low mileage Mk1 Scirocco GLS manual auction

Post by GT_II »

Has anyone else spotted the very low mileage clean looking MK1 Scirocco GLS on auction here:
https://www.historics.co.uk/buying/auct ... co-gls-fs/

It looks really well preserved though the rear suspension to my eyes looks slightly low relative to the front. Aftermarket sunroof and tow bar fitted - otherwise looking unmodified.

The suspension is how they were from new - there was always a slight rearward rake. You can see it in the old brochures.

Ah yes, giving it a more dynamic look, maybe?
