Marc,
The numbers, from Ian Kuah's VW Power and Style pg 89, were 504,000 for the
MkI and 272,000 for the MkII.  The MkII numbers of course include the 16V.
A interesting number would be how many are left?  There can't be many MkI
around anymore.
The Scirocco, along with Cabriolets and Corrados were built by Karmann
Coachworks in Osnabruck Germany.  VW never built the Scirocco themselves,
except for prototypes.
