1990 VW Scirocco GT II, 1781cc, automatic. Registration number H473 VMW. VIN number WVWZZZ53ZLK007629. Engine number EX061814.
The second generation Scirocco went on sale in 1981, although it remained on the A1 platform. Designed by Volkswagen's own internal design team, the new car featured increased front and rear headroom, increased luggage space and a reduction in the coefficient of drag. One feature of the Type 2 was the location of the rear spoiler midway up the glass on the rear hatch. A mid-cycle update occurred in 1984, which included minor changes over the 1982 model.
Eleven different engines were offered in the Type 2 Scirocco over the production run, although not all engines were available in all markets. These engines included both carburetor and fuel injection engines. Initially all models had eight-valve engines. A 16-valve head was developed by tuner Oettinger in 1981, with the modification adopted by Volkswagen when they showed a multi-valve Scirocco at the 1983 Frankfurt Motor Show. Numerous trim levels existed, depending on the model year and market.
VMW is largely a one owner car, bought by Mark Midwood from Mann Egerton of Swindon. The service book has 16 stamps from new through to 2013 at 73,374 miles when it was taken off the road. Recommissioned in 2020 and serviced/MOT'd at 73,458 miles, including a cambelt change, wheels refurbished and new brake cylinders, its current MOT runs until January 2023.
Sold with the V5C, current MOT, DVLA MOT history, extensive service receipts, service book, the car presents very well.
