I have owned this car since 2005 and used it daily to drive to work from that time until last year. Last year I decided to rebuild the engine since it was getting a little hard to start and using more oil. I got another car during my rebuild and just never went back to driving the rabbit like I was. I drove it about 500 miles since the rebuild then parked it in the garage where it has sat since last April until driven today 3/9 and works perfectly. Odometer shows 225k. It stopped recording every mile a few years ago. The speedo works and odometer records sometimes and then doesn't sometimes. Mileage doesn't matter as nearly every rotating part on the car has been replaced.

New parts include... rod bearings, main bearings, piston rings, timing belt, injector pump seal kit, camshaft seals, oil pan gasket, head gasket and bolts, all new hoses, heater core, starter, thermostat, water pump, glow plugs, shifter bushings, windshield, front rotors, calipers and pads, rear brakes, front wheel bearings, CV axles and transmission seals, full exhaust front to rear, Brand new tires all the way around with the VW GT aluminum rims. Has 100psi cold oil pressure, runs about 60psi warmed up at highway speed. I set the injector pump timing toward maximum safe advance. It's getting 51 mpg highway which is about two or three more than before the rebuild. It also starts excellently even in cold weather. Drives super smooth. Has a nice radio and speakers.

I have the passenger side and back seats. I was running without them as why carry the weight if I was the only one ever in there.

Car has a four speed manual trans that works great. With the deal I have a five speed trans I will throw in if you want it. Wouldn't make any difference for highway driving, high is the same ratio but some people want a five speed.

Car has some rust coming. Original paint, See the pictures. Most of it is surface that could be sanded off. The car needs paint. I would suggest sanding and a rustoleum paint job, would be very cheap and preserve the car. The floors and underneath are solid.

The 2023 Chicago Auto Show played host to a number of reveals this year, and we were there to capture all of them. In traditional auto show fashion, that means you’re getting a mega gallery of galleries to flip through and see all the vehicles on the show floor. Our EditorsÂ’ Picks from the show are already out Â— spoiler alert, the 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander took home the prize. That said, there were other important reveals like the 2024 Volkswagen Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport and the 2024 Subaru Crosstrek. We also learned some interesting tidbits, such as the fact that VW is considering a pickup, and Jeep owners really are plugging in. To see the photos, scroll on down and start flipping through those galleries.

MotorWeek looks back at the 1986.5 VW Scirocco 16V

Wed, Jan 21 2015

It's back to the past with MotorWeek for a video dive into the 1986.5 Volkswagen Scirocco 16V, the coupe that carried the pennant for VW's performance aspirations for 15 years, from 1974 to 1989. This one, the last generation, got the hottest of all by adding a head with four valves per cylinder. The 1.8-liter DOHC engine cranked out "an amazing" 123 horsepower and 120 pound-feet of torque, and made this model the fastest VW to ever be sold in America; it went from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 8.5 seconds, faster than a Porsche 944. To compare vintage apples to modern ones, the New Scirocco with a 123-hp 1.4-liter TSI engine and a manual transmission takes 9.3 seconds. We like MotorWeek's Retro Review series not only for the cars, but for how they also remind us of what we used to find important in cars. The Scirocco here gets upvoted for its throttle response and handling, downvoted for an oddly placed oil pressure gauge and lack of battery voltage meter. We can't remember the last time a voltage meter was mentioned in a review, either its presence or lack. Check out the video above for what the definition of "US hot hatch" used to be.
