[QUOTE="Vforce700, post: 17026604, member: 205251"] Found some pix I took when I first got the Scirocco 16V. It was Nov 2, 1988. Not the best clarity because they are digital photos of old printed photographs. This is the first photo I took of the car after buying. I was completely over the moon. [ATTACH type="full" alt="20230513_094837.jpg"]1834166[/ATTACH] 88 was officially the only year for Alpine White, although I've seen a couple of 87's. Gunnar Heuberger had just took over the reins from his dad. Was a week or so shy of his 28th birthday when I bought the car. He grew up at that dealership. Showed me all kinds of stuff on the car, under the car, etc. His personal collection at that time was 16 cars. Last I talked to him, he was at 43 cars.
