Pre-facelift petrol GTS

Post by Hick97 »

I've been on the hunt for quite a while now for a white pre facelift petrol GTS. Was curious as to how many were actually manufactured as not having much luck at the minute.

GTS's are pretty rare . Launched in 2013 they sold in limited numbers in the UK , a few remained unregistered until 2014 .
How many left.com records the following numbers of new UK registrations between 2001 and 2015 (Note S-A = semi automatic)

Variant.......................2012.......2013 ........2014........2015..........Total

SCIROCCO GTS TSI...........0...........23...........7..............0 ............30
SCIROCCO GTS TSI S-A......0...........29...........9..............0.............38
SCIROCCO GTS TDI..........0...........104.........53.............0.............157
SCIROCCO GTS TDI S-A.....0............91..........31.............0.............122

Grand total..................0............247........100............0.............347

Note that the total new UK registrations for all scirocco variants in these years averages out at about 5k cars per year

Variant......................2012.......2013..........2014.........2015..........Total
All............................5056......4926...........4135.........4469.........18586

The data from https://www.howmanyleft.co.uk/browse/vo ... n_scirocco shouldnt be taken as the definitive 100% accurate answer , but does give a you fairly reasonable idea.

Ouch, didn't realise quite how few petrol variants there was, thanks for the info! A re-think may be in order perhaps.
