Tempest 0 Posted August 30, 2006 MK1? And there was I thinking Mk1 unanimously on a Corradoforum (coupe, not hatch) meant Scirocco Mk1, as that's the only Mk1 in my books. The rest are Goofs, albeit that the Mk1 is the nicest (also designed by Giugiaro) :-) Tempest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
