Scirocco Central

I got this remapped yesterday from Revo, so much fun! Well worth it, the torque has gone through the roof

Really happy with it. Yes the ride is a noticeable amount stiffer than standard but not as harsh as coilovers

Now lowered on Eibach springs.
I'm pleased with how they look, exactly what I was after.

This was a straight swap, very easy infact! The heated leather works although the electric lumbar (I think it is that-round button with 4 directional controls) doesn't work. I'm guessing this needs to be fused and enabled with VagCom? Does anyone know?

Yes, the chrome tips are Yeti tips.

I just picked up this today. It was a bargain so couldn't refuse!
Full leather with door cards.

Collected this morning :D . Enjoying the new car, well impressed. Not found anything yet to fault. Getting used to the visibility to the rear takes a bit. Looking forward to getting back to the twisty roads in the Highlands... 8) http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7189/6945024813_31395b5fe7_z.jpg http:/...

Thanks :) I agree on the colour, I love white cars! Yeah I wasn't a fan of the Bluemotion badge at all, I'll be removing the 2.0TDI lettering too and replacing with a decal for my web design company- free advertising! The dealer said to me I could remap it if I like, i'll just make sure they're awar...

Probably the cheapest mod I'll do, £2.49 vinyl from eBay

Hopefully they work, i've left a message for Mick on the Scirocco Net

Thanks for the heads up but I'm not 100% sure what you mean? I thought it would just be a straight swap as my car is wired up for heated seats. Are you saying that wiring within the leather seats may differ to those in a cloth interior?

Chrome tips now fitted They took some doing. I tried a block of wood and a hammer but had no joy so ended up wrapping 5 socks onto a hammer and knocking them on that way. Happy with the outcome though. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7238/7031545581_255cf71ca6_z.jpg IMG_0655 by RunMcLeod , on Flickr

Thanks for the info

Does anyone know if all leather seats come with heated elements inside them or do some not have them?

Todays little change- red trim on the front end.

Today I collected my new Scirocco. It's a 2.0L GT Tdi blue motion 140. I opted for this as the majority of my driving is on the motorways so I wanted the economy. £20 road tax is an added bonus too! First impressions are great, exactly what I expected. It drives very smooth- petrol like if anything,...

Hello, Ordered my car 23 Dec 11 with an estimated build of week 10. Got a phone call from my dealership today confirming it had been built and was on its way to the port, so the estimate was exact as it is now build week 10. Hopefully not to long to wait but at least i know its built and on its way...

I ordered mine on Dec 27th. Was told build week 6. Rang up today to find out the latest. Supposedly its been made and waiting to go to the port. :no: I was hoping it was on that 'Bouzas vessel'! Ahh well! Only a few more weeks to go! I cant wait! :p I don't know how that works then. I ordered mine ...

Does anyone know if I have any grounds for a complaint on my above query? I had the salesman call me today and offer me another car today instead of the one I ordered however it didn't have the winter pack- something I stressed is essential so naturally I said no. He's going to 'make some calls' and...

I ordered mine on 22nd December and got told to expect the car mid February but to collect on the 1st March with the new UK 2012 plate. I haven't heard anything from them so went in today to check and they told me my build week is week 10 and to expect it mid March. Quite annoyed at this as I go abr...
