The yellow turbod one is a Mk2 mate.

I have heard tell of a Mk1 Rocco in the Blue Mountains

I recall an SA member here serving one at the servo where he works. It may well have been the first one pictured here.

There is also a green MkI in Adelaide - havent seen it around for a while though.

2 Mk 1's in melbourne that i know of undergoing restoration work.

4 in my possession, Daniels turbo 16 V located in Perth, and have rumours of another one in the hills here.

scrapped 2 in my time also.

Pics posted years ago in the gallery section.

I estimated about 20 in all.

Did VW sell a few here are they all personal imports?

Mk1 rocco's

VW imported several cars in 75/76 for evaluation, the silver car that was articled in "Modern motor " around that time is undergoing work in Melbourne.

I have heard through various sources that they actually bought over 6 evaluation cars at that time, but it could be all talk. They would have been all 75 or early 76 models. Pretty well all the others are personal imports.

Have a look in the vBPicGallery as there are images floating about in there of several cars...mine are about page 25...

scirocco

There's 2 in Canberra, my silver 76 and my brothers white 16v 78 plus the 2 we scrapped years ago when nobody wanted them.

Thanks for those Replies. I will compile all I get but Grant has probably got good idea on numbers. My Scirocco is the one that was in the Blue Mountains for some time.

Yellow one owned by a Gentleman from the UK.
Will pass to nephew when he can no longer drive.

There was a black early car in Melbourne too, was totalled apparently, bought the doors, screen and dash from the fella too. Think Tim knows the bloke. He was the one who informed me there were 6 original evaluation cars.

That was a crazy car. Probly the nicest mk1 scirocco ive ever seen. Cant remember the specs of it cos it was many years ago. But it was Black, low, loud, had zender wheels and was running a link stand alone system. Poor Mat was gutted when he got rear ended by some clueless twat! Car was a writeoff
