Nice Scirocco!!!

I had two '84's, an '85, and an '86 16V.  The '86 was one of my favorite
cars of all time, until the timing belt broke.

Everybody talks about how worthless the 7-passenger Vanagons are, but I've
had two '85's that I took care of, maintained, fixed what needed to be
fixed, etc. and I sold each of them very, very quickly when the time came.

Granted, the cost of maintaining them was less overall than what I got in
payment, but I'm not in it for profit.  And the people I sold them to each
got great Vanagons.
