Has any1 on here owned 1 if so any advice on what to look for and what model would be best, i want one to go with my golf ;D
-
Same rules apply as for the MK1,
but the GT bodykit can hide a multitude of sins!
Very good value for money but some insurers group them higher than they should be.
Spares are more plentyful than the MK1 but not as good as for MK2, some rubber and trim is now obselete.
For ease of tuning and economy go for a late injection model, if you do buy a carb model, budget circa ?150-?200 for a webber.
Hope this helps. ;)

I was just after one to have fun in as im lookin for a mk1 cab as well to replace my 16v and ddint really want to cars that are basically the same and a corrado was to expensive to be used as a run around and i seen a few sciroccos for ?500, which will do me :)

I used to have a MK1 storm and it was an awesome car, also had a MK2 GT so like them. The scalas are good value for money if you can get a good one.
-
What were the trim models i seen a red scala for 895 every mot, history, new clutch tyres and exhaust would it be worth it?
-
The scala is basically the same as the GTX which means its a 1781cc fuel injected one. Has rear drum brakes.
It depends on the year of the car for the actual spec of it as the later models had electric windows and central locking as standard.
