What's the strangest thing you've towed with your Scirocco?



Ok. So it wasn't a tow, but I did dig out a tree stump, then pulled it out using my Gold MKI :)
Engine roaring, straining at the rope, I heard it POP, then sail over the car. Missed the car comepletely!

> It wasn't with a Scirocco exactly, but when my 73 bus died in Kalamazoo, my brother offered to tow it up to where my GMC pickup was waiting for me in Midland MI using his rabbit diesel. There we were, cruising north on 27, big huge box behind the little rabbit, with my brother at the the helm, me and my girlfriend in the back seat, and our hung-over friend, Arch, in the right front seat. As we passed a couple on the side of the road looking at another VW bus for sale, Arch couldn't contain himself, rolled down the window, and yelled, "Buy it, sucker!", as we trundled slowly by. You should have seen their expressions as we rolled past!
