Basically your saying it would be easier to get a 16V that came from a
Scirocco than this 16V?

I have a strange feeling that there is something wrong with this deal. Like
maybe its stolen. $700 for a 16V and transmission sounds too good to be
true. I am supposed to decide and call this guy back. He said it comes with
everything thats bolted to the motor. Computer, FI, Wireing harness, but if
none of it will work with my A1 than I'll forget it.

Give me your opinion, plus I hate to break a deal with this other guy he has
been very patient. Speaking of patience I still haven't gotten my car back.

I'll let you know what happens.
