The first VW Scirocco was based on the same platform that spawned the legendary first generation Golf GTI.

So you might guess that it is a really fun thing to drive around, even today. Petrolicious features in its latest episode the tale of a Scirocco enthusiast who happens to work for the Road & Track magazine testing cars and writing about them for a living.

Jason Cammisa declares still in love with his Scirocco 16v despite having access to some of the most exotic automobiles of the planet.

This video raises a topic, which will never go out of fashion for every petrolhead out there, about the lack of simple, affordable and fun-to-drive motoring experiences in modern cars. Yes, it’s an overused cliché (Titled: They don’t make them like they used to) but that doesn’t mean it’s not true on some occasions.

Watch the video and join me in the classifieds.
