I had a '76 Mk1 that I was going to restore, probably into some sort of race/street vehicle. It had a 1.6 8v motor with a terminal rod knock. Would have been cool to put a fully modded 2.0 TSI motor in it, with a 6 speed, Quaife (sp?) etc. It had a straight body with some surface rust, but that's about it. It sat in my driveway almost 20 years, then finally got a free ride to the "Auto Recycler".
~Holland Yes - The Mk2 Slorocco, especially the 16v was essentially a very overweight Rabbit. I had one and it was tonnes of fun - not as visceral as the Mk1 by any stretch of the imagination but much more connected than anything VW has produced since that time frame.

'87 was Definitely Mk2... ~Holland On Dec 8, 2015 07:47, "'Matthew Yip' via MK2-16v" <[email protected]> wrote: I have a hard time with "restored" - these cars just don't seem that old to me BUT they're almost 30 years old at this point!!! (Damn, I'm OLD too). I should probably keep this to myself BUT as a non-sunroof car, this restoration car would make a great racecar candidate (that is if the Mk1 Slorocco weren't such an overweight pig).
