Re: Instant Synchro?

[16v Jason <jason@scirocco.org>]

Um, despite the fact that several self-titled VW Buffs have insisted to me 
that the Scirocco was indeed rear-wheel drive, there was no such 
thing.  All Sciroccos were produced on the A1 platform, which is FWD only.

However, I think Aaron was being sarcastic -- selling prime oceanfront 
property in Arizona -- because of course there was no 1.7 in the Mk2 83-87 
Sciroccos.

:)

Aaron, put a smiley in when you're being sarcastic..  It sometimes can help 
things stay under control. ;)
