Thanks Pete,
Nice to find a Group, that don't hate you if you like other Vehicles.

We have one show which caters for EVERYONE. Norfolk Police Gala Day.
We've attended this show for the last 6 years.
You'll find Ford's, Fiat's, Scooby's, Mini's, VW's, Triumphs, Motorbikes, Trucks, Military Vehicles, Buses and Coaches....the list goes on.

It nice to see how the other half respect their vehicles rather than just VW's in my case.
 
Looks pristine, i hope a few people in here don't take offence to you posting the pics! Be stupid to really! Just seems like war in here lately against non-Fiats!

Sounds like you've spent a pretty penny on it doing it up!

Another day...another problem...
 
Yep, Got to be well over £10k - £15k, but she's worth it.
All reciepts and MOT's Tax Discs the lot.
Brochures from all over the world.
Agreed Value of £4,500.

I hope people don't take offence, we get that too much on our Forum, where I'm 1 of 3 Admin for about 2000+ members online.
The Club itself 'ClubGTI' has about 4500 - 5000 members in the UK, it one of the biggest in the UK.

Fed up with members squabbling over pitiful things.

I hope this Forum is different.
 
Nice!

Always liked 'Roccos!

My mates got a rather nice White 1992 1.8i Scala. Its his second too so I have to like them:D

I would have considered one myself but the insurance was a bit high for me.

Thanks Guy's

Yeah Insurance is always a good one for discussion on our forum.

Scirocco's are still a Group 15 !!![:(!]
So members with Golf's, Corrado's etc are paying in excess of £900+ most of the time thats TPF&T !!!
Then again it does depend on convictions and also your risk area.
Lucky for me No points and I'm in a very low risk area.

The Cinquencento Insurance for me Fully Comp was only £183.00 [^]
So I didn't get penalised for having all my no claims on the Scirocco.
Can't believe its only a Group 3 !

Well chuffed
