I bought my Scirocco in 1993, a one-owner car with 69,800 miles on it. As this is written, it has done 159,500 miles and is still my daily driver. I believe it to be one of the last batch of GTXs; these came with the Le Castellet wheels and body-colour arch and sill extensions (aka "16V body kit" in the US).
