You have listed so many defect I wouldn't offer him more than $500 for
this piece of shit. Better yet skip it and look for a better scirocco.
My roommate found an awesome 16V for $2200 and mine was $3600 but they
gave me $1800 for my ragged out A1 GTI that was probobly worth around
$1000 really. Your going to be spending a lot of money on this car move
on to a better kept 16V.


You'll save money in the long, short and everywhere in between.
