Compared to similiar cars made by Western manufacturers the 'rocco is streets ahead.

 

The 1.8 8v block is near bulletproof, the bodywork was all galvanised (C reg Escort anyone - whoops its rusted away by now)

 

Have a bit of a read of this for a few tips : http://www.sciroccoregister.co.uk/

i'm with yans on this one - get a gtx 18i, canny performance - i had 2 and i loved them - longer legged than golfs as well (gbox ratios) and better cruisingmpg depending how you use it

 

and definately dirt cheap these days

..the bodywork was all galvanised ...

 

are you sure?, even the Corrado only has a few galvanised-ish bits, thought the audi 80/100 were the first galvanised mainstream cars, not including things like porkers.

that does sound cheap, but it depends on where you live and so on, I've got 2 fault claims against me now too. worth checking out, although I'm leaning towards a (gulp) polo! :(
