    Not quite unique, there's one in my mate's garage 500M from where I am sat right now!

    Something not right about the date too. Pretty sure they didn't do a VR in 88.

    From wikipedia.

    Volkswagen introduced two new engines for 1992. The first was a naturally aspirated 2.0 litre, 16 valve, 136 bhp (101 kW; 138 PS) inline-4, basically a further development of the 1.8 litre engine; this engine was not made available to the North American market. The second was the highly-regarded 12-valve VR6 engine which came in two variants: a 2.8 litre 179 bhp (133 kW; 181 PS) model for the US and Canadian markets and a 2.9 litre and 192 bhp (143 kW; 195 PS) version for the European market.

    So it's had an engine fitted or the date of manufacture is wrong. Also, it looks to be Tornado red which isn't a VR6 colour.

    Interior shots would have been nice.
