Re: GTX, GTi, GT, GTII, Scala, ......



Just a quick addition to Sean's little list of Sciroccos he's 
included most of the Sciroccos that I know of, apart from some minor 
little deviations. First of all the first (series II) CLs only had 
the 1500 motor (1981-1983). This is where that little nugget came 
from, and secondly the early (81-83) GLs had a 85bhp 1600 carb 
engine which was much better (IMHO) than the later 1600 as fitted to 
the GTs. In late 1983 the CLs were replaced by the GTs, which was also 
when they got the lower spec 1600 engine, the GLs were replaced 
by the GTLs (now with 1800 carb engine) and the GTis were replaced 
with the GTXs, which came with the same body kit as the Storm, but 
not colour-coded. 
For UK peoples the early models are easy to tell apart by just 
looking at the headlights. CLs just had the single oblong one, GLs 
had the later style oblong/square spot version, GTis had the 
twin-square type.
Right that's enough drivel for the moment.

P.S. Scirocco Storm, the Ultimate GTi!
