My first VW, a 1987 Scirocco Scala 1.8 Bought in April 1997, it needed very little work to bring the bodywork up to a very nice standard. with no rust, and just a few stonechips, which I quickly fixed. The standard suspension left a lot to be desired, in both handling, and looks. Although I felt the Scala's standard alloys suited the car, they were beginning to look a little scruffy. A full stainless steel exhaust system was fitted in 1999, with a Janspeed tubular manifold.

Just over a year later, And my Scala's looking a little different, Koni shocks, and springs have lowered the car nicely, and a set of new 15 inch alloys. I removed the black bump stripes, which I felt spoiled the lines of the car. Clear indicator lenses, and side repeaters which I found at Volks Bits, just add to the whole effect. Finally a Fuba on the back instead of the standard wing mount aerial.
