Ngosuku iVolkswagen yethula ngalo Isizukulwane sesi-8 seGalofu, sanquma ukukhumbula incazelo eyinqaba kakhulu yesizukulwane sokuqala semodeli edumile yaseJalimane. Indalo engaba nesiginesha yonjiniyela wobuciko u-Franco Sbarro. Ngama-80s, amaphrojekthi akhethekile ayenaye.
Wazalelwa e-Italy, uFranco Sbarro, owasungula ngo-1971 inkampani yezimoto ezincane, kuze kube manje, ebambe iqhaza ekudalweni okuhlaba umxhwele embonini yezimoto - hhayi ngezizathu ezinhle kakhulu, kuyiqiniso.
Kodwa kuyo yonke imiklamo yayo, le Volkswagen Golf Turbo Sbarro mhlawumbe ihlaba umxhwele kakhulu.
Konke kwaqala ngo-1982, lapho ikhasimende elalinamaphakethe ajulile futhi elilangazelela nakakhulu ukuchitha imali lingqongqoza emnyango kaSbarro. Imalini? Bengifuna iVolkswagen Golf MK1 efakwe injini yePorsche 911 Turbo.
Ahambe ayongqongqoza emnyango wangakwesokudla. UFranco Sbarro akazange ayifulathele inselele futhi wavuma ukuthatha isidumbu seVolkswagen Golf yango-1975 futhi yangena ngaphakathi - ngandlela thize... - injini ephikisanayo enamasilinda ayisithupha enamandla amalitha angu-3.3 kanye nama-hp angu-300.
Ngenxa yokushoda kwesikhala ngaphambili, isixazululo asitholile uSbarro kube wukubeka injini endaweni emaphakathi ngemuva, izihlalo zangemuva zisuke ngokwemvelo. Kodwa umsebenzi wemishini awugcinanga lapho. Uguqulo olunamagiya amane obekungena kuwo wonke ama-Porsche 911 Turbo kwaze kwaba ngu-1988 luvuleleke ku-gearbox onamagiya amahlanu we-ZF DS25 (owuzuzwe ku-BMW M1).

Ukuze ipholise injini, uFranco Sbarro wasebenzisa umoya omncane ongenisa umoya kabili ohlangothini lwemodeli. Futhi akukho lutho olushiywe ngengozi, noma ibhalansi eguqukayo. Ngenxa yokubekwa okumaphakathi kwenjini ye-flat-six, kanye nokudlula kwezinto ezifana nethangi likaphethiloli ukuya ku-asi yangaphambili, ukusabalalisa kwesisindo sokugcina kwaba ngu-50/50.
