Volkswagen Scirocco 1981
An excellent steerability, like glued to road. Seating position is so low that you feel as if I was sitting in on asphalt. The car is light enough to dynamics would be good enough, of course, if does not expect performance of 2.5 l engine from 1.8 . Most components fits from VW Golf, respectively are cheap and readily available.

Would recomend this car to the friend
Pros: An excellent steerability, like glued to road. Seating position is so low that you feel as if I was sitting in on asphalt. The car is light enough to dynamics would be good enough, of course, if does not expect performance of 2.5 l engine from 1.8 . Most components fits from VW Golf, respectively are cheap and readily available.
Cons: The car for two people, behind only enough room for children or dogs, although baggage can be stacked enough. Solid, loud salon, low. Body parts are not too readily available
