Well, I have an 85, and I am pretty sure (but not 100%) that the 
Sciroccos up to and including 84, came with the smaller rear spoiler, the 
hood with only one hole in the center that holds the wiper-washer-fluid 
"dispenser" (as opposed to two holes for 85 and up), and one wiper only. 
As a matter of fact, a number of things changed between 84 and 85 for the 
Sciroccos (size of the spare was a curious one I particularly remember), 
and that is why the Bentley manuals are for 1985-up Sciroccos.

Don't know the answer to that one, but I would be curious to find out if 
any people in this list know about prices paid for new Sciroccos between 
82 and 87. I recently read a posting in the .watercooled newsgroup about 
an 87 16V Scirocco for sale. The guy listed all the nifty additions he 
had made, and at the end also listed the price he paid when he bought it 
new in 1987: $19,9xx. I somehow find that extremely high for that time. 
Any comments?
