Description
This 1987 Volkswagen Scirocco 16V features a 1.8-liter DOHC inline-four engine, paired with a five-speed manual transaxle. Equipped with a sunroof, and a four-speaker sound system, it also includes a hatch spoiler, rear window wiper, 14-inch alloy wheels, and four-wheel disc brakes. Originally sold in Quebec, this Canadian-spec Scirocco had its speedometer gears fail, leading to the replacement of the original cluster at ~260k-kms with a MPH cluster which then read 139k-miles. Since then, minimal additional mileage has been accrued, showing a current odometer reading of 139k-miles, though the true estimated mileage is approximately 260 km (162k miles).
According to the included Carfax report, this vehicle has a clean history with no reported accidents or damage and has registrations listed in Quebec, Alberta, and British Columbia.
For US bidders, this Scirocco is directly importable without modification as it is EPA & DOT exempt being greater than 25 years old. For more information on transport/import please visit our Transport/Import page here.
The Scirocco 16V, released in mid-1986 in both the US and Canada, boasts a full-body skirt and a larger rear spoiler. It sports a factory-original Tornado Red (LY3D) paint job, noted to have been repainted by a previous owner. The factory aerokit includes body-colored side skirts, wheel arch extensions, 16V badging, a manually operable tilting and sliding sunroof, a hatch spoiler, a rear window wiper, and satin black bumper covers, along with quadruple rectangular headlights. It sits on 14-inch Audi Quattro coupe wheels, outfitted with Ironman IMOVE GEN 2 A/S tires, size 185/60R14.
Internally, the vehicle features black leather upholstery with front seats sourced from a similar-vintage Volkswagen Corrado. The dash is equipped with a four-spoke steering wheel, a 120-mph speedometer, an 8,000-rpm tachometer, digital clock, and gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level, with a battery voltage gauge centrally located.
The mechanical odometer displays 139k miles, reflecting about 1,500 miles added by the current owner. The car includes manual windows, and matching black floor mats. Notable mentions include minor scratches and dents, paint imperfections on the left rear quarter, and a removed sunroof inner headliner that requires new fabric.
Under the hood, the 1.8-liter DOHC 16-valve engine was originally rated at 123 horsepower and 120 lb-ft of torque. A significant $2,000 service was conducted last summer by a specialist, including replacement of the timing belt, all filters and fluids, and the fuel pump. This exmaple benefits from the addition of a full Tectonics tuning exhaust system with a new header. The vehicle transmits power through a five-speed manual transaxle, with notes from the seller regarding a squeaking power steering pump when cold and e-brake cables due for replacement, in which new ebrake cables are included in the sale.
