Ratty Rescue: Scirocco MK2-For-One

[See image gallery at www.vwvortex.com]

Well folks we have yet another BOGO Ratty Rescue offer to bring to you today: two Sciroccos in need of some TLC. With this great offer you can now have TWO project cars cluttering up your driveway! Be the envy of your neighbors.

The feature car here is the 1987 16V model, and boy could it be a looker with some love and attention. This is a ‘deluxe’ car according to the seller that includes power mirrors, air conditioning, and power steering. The car is complete (nothing missing) and comes with a ton of additional parts including stainless steel brake lines, adjustable Koni struts, new fuel lines, and much more. It has 95,000 miles on the odometer, but has not run in years. In addition to the car lacking (any) power, the seller lists a worn driver’s seat, peeling/faded paint, and a few other things typical of a car this age. One last item: the car does not come with a clear title. You’ll have to talk to the owner about that one.

7587196

The second car is a 1985 model with the 8 valve engine. Until recently this was the seller’s daily driver, so this one’s a runner. It sports a number of upgrades including a short-throw shifter, Boge sport suspension, and period-correct “snowflake” alloy wheels. New parts installed included: exhaust system and catalytic converter, clutch, flywheel, motor mounts, and much more. Unlike the 16V, this one has a clean title.

In addition to all that, the seller is including additional head units, steering wheel, and, get this, two engines. That’s quite a lot of kit for this package deal.

The cars are located in Orange County, CA, and the seller is askizng $7000 for everything. Both the red 16V model and the black 8V model can be found on thesamba.com.

2018 Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster Review

“Supercars just don’t excite me anymore.” These words, spoken to me over a month ago by another journalist, friend, and (so-called) enthusiast were echoing in my head for far too long, but they’ve finally been drowned out. Drowned out by the wail of a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine mounted in the middle of the new Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster. My friend’s point is that back in the good old days, there was a crop of supercars that captured the imagination with amazing style, sounds, performance, and more. Today, it seems like everything is capable of supercar performance, with large luxury sedans outdoing some of the best and most dedicated teams of car nuts, while former pillars of automotive excellence are suddenly pumping out family-friendly SUVs. Beyond that, another league of supercars, dubbed hypercars have cropped up with hybrid gas-electric powertrains that make magical things happen quickly, but at the cost of the acoustic drama, visual flair, and engag...

PZM 73rd Rally Poland Kicks Off

The WRC is in Poland and after only one stage there are three Volkswagens in the top five. Today’s special stage at the Mikolajki Arena is the first stage, but the rally doesn’t begin in earnest until Friday. Today’s super special stage was less than two minutes long, and less than a second separates the top five drivers. Hyundai Motorsport’s Thierry Neuville tops the charts today, followed closely by Volkswagen’s Andreas Mikkelsen. Sebastien Ogier and Jari-Matti Latvala are in fourth and fifth, respectively. Expect Ogier to climb the rankings, though. Not only did he win the rally last year, he has won every year since 2013. And with rain expected on Friday, Ogier’s chances are even better. “If it’s a bit wet then I hope I can make some good times,” said Ogier earlier today. “The best would be some good rain during the night so it’s a damp surface and then not too bad weather during the day so specators can enjoy the show without being too wet.” If it is dry, though, speed is on ...
