Looks great Matt, wish it was lining up against my MK2 at wakefield this weekend! look forward to seeing it at the nats

Question.. Did the mk2 scirocco come out without the rear wiper? I would like keep the back of mine clean and light weight, so would like original glass without the hole for the wiper..

Yeah I`m spewing, no racing for me. Glad your Mk2 is gonna be ready though.

I have never seen the rear screen with no wiper.

I believe the very early Mk2's had the rear wiper as an option, There was a post on the tex about some guy finding a rear screen without the hole.

best of luck finding one !!!

Yeah about time for an update Jay.

Changed the Turbo, which was blowing smoke and got sent a KO3s instead of a KO3, I kinda shrugged and bolted it up

I robbed a good aftermarket intake boot from an A3 we were wrecking and gave the computer a bit of a tweak. Fully programable baby

It then started blowing off each boost hose in turn. Grr. $200 worth of Pirtek Clams later and I reckon I could pick the car up with one of the boost pipes.

The thing cracks, its a weapon. The TDI gearbox is epic.

It almost doesnt matter what gear you are in it just pulls and pulls.

I overtook a couple of cars on the bypass the other saturday and the wind got under the crappy aftermarket sunroof and blew if off

The builders at the side of the road were treated to some crazy in a Delorean ripping his dangling sunroof off and throwing it in the boot.

This acellerated the what am I going to do with the aftermarket roof issue?

I`d like to lose the sunroof, but good luck finding a Scirocco roof in Australia.

What I did do was get the roof section of a Mk1 Passat, which had very similar dimensions and curves.

I took the car up to a master panelbeater friend of mine last week and just got these photos from him.

Now I need to think about what colour to paint it and who can do the job for me.
