Wow, 312K. I do really like Sciroccos, but not enough to go to Chicago for this one.

Is this right ?

Yeah, probably. I've seen healthy running golfs and jettas from that era with almost 500k on original engines.

My Golf had something around 240k-ish when I got it, and my Quantum (which the Internet will tell you is horrible because it is longitudinal) has around 380k. Original engine, head gasket, transmission, and clutch

I think VW made their clutch linings out of granite. I bought my Golf because the owner was dreading when the clutch was going to die. When I sold it, the clutch and the engine were the best parts of the car.

Someone needs to buy that and make another pi odometer photograph.

I own a 16V version of this car, but mine is now a race car and has less then 90K on it since new (1988). Any one interested in it can contact me and the seller and I can take a look at it.
