Used 1985 Volkswagen Scirocco Used Manual Coupe Base 1.8, 8vL Gasoline

Seller Description

Sporty, stylish, and very
rare, this Gen 2 Scirocco is one of the nicest to be found in the eastern
US. And it is a real kick to drive on
twisty roads! This is the base model
with a strong 1.8L 8V engine and 5-speed manual transmission. Factory options include sunroof and AC. Recent refurbishment included rebuilt CIS
fuel injection, plugs & wires, tune up, full brake system (rotors,
calipers, lines, cylinders), rebuilt shift linkage, stainless steel exhaust header
(catalytic converter deleted), adjustable coil-over suspension, rubber window
swipes, and a Pioneer stereo w/ hands-free Bluetooth and USB. (A VW Heidelberg
AM/FM/cassette radio is included with sale.)
The cloth interior is in beautiful condition, and the body is solid with
no serious rust.
The car was repainted in the
original color by a previous owner and it looks great. During my ownership, a small rust hole (about
the size of a nickel) was professionally repaired with welded metal; another
hole in spare tire well is patched with metal. The next caretaker will have a
few more items to tend -- most notably, it needs a headliner and AC
repair.
Minor problems: (1) Two
small dents – 1 on the front left wheel well and 1 under the front bumper on
the chin spoiler.

(2) Cargo cover is missing. (3) Rear seat belt (female)
receivers are missing. [Just discovered when my wife climbed in back!] (4)
Driver's seat recliner knob and power mirror switch are not functioning. (5)
The dash clock works but the hour-set button does not. All other gauges, lights, and controls work
as expected.
The CarFax report is clean with
no reported accidents. When I purchased
the car, the odometer indicated 145,620 miles (substantiated by CarFax). Soon thereafter, the odometer and gas gauge
failed, and I subsequently had a used gauge cluster installed in July
2018. The replacement odometer indicated
162,695 miles (~17k higher than the original).
I estimate actual mileage is less than 150k, though true mileage is
unknown.
