Scirocco Central

Yeah I am going to chase it up with the council as it was on a main A road when it happened. It's just finding the time to collect all the evidence and stuff :/ I will get round to doing it at some point though as I'm guessing a new alloy won't be cheap. So thanks for that link I'm sure it will com...

Like those new wheels.

Lovely car, nice colour, the wheels are beautiful, really suit the car ,what are they?

If petrol was cheaper, that is the car I would have bought. I know its never been cheaper at present but the expense and pain of running a car like that would outweigh the looks and thrill factor. Enjoy it, very pleased for you. Never actually driven an R but would love a go sometime.

I have the same colour R-line TDI, beautiful colour, not seen many around in Dark Midnight blue and I have never seen an R in that colour. Love the wheels as well, really suit that colour car. Look after it and it will look after you.

BP Ultimate or Shell V-Power, never used anything else in my diesels, I personally think it makes a difference as I have used normal diesel but everyone has different opinions on this one. Use what you prefer, its your choice at the end of the day.

Lovely looking car mate, especially in that colour. Look at it every day, enjoy it and forget about the ex wife.

Lovely looking motor, I really like that exhaust but not the blue things on the wheels but its personal taste.

Thanks both , I was going to go for Matt graphite or black I just wanted something different I've seen these Fitted to audi and bmw and like the dished look in the end I went with silver at least the talladega are safe in the garage as the wife will end up kirbing these ones Would not my wife or an...

Love those alloys.

I have a TDI 177 2013 plate with 9000 miles on it, I bought it with 3000 miles on it. Its dark midnight blue, an R-line as well. Its economical and powerful and the best car I have ever owned. It looks the dogs danglers. It came with Pirelli P1 zeros but it now wears Goodyear Assymetric F1s, just a ...

I've found the Blue and Green are best.

HOWEVER, I do like a dark grey. It's the only tinge of the drab colours I like and the Indium (IIRC) is gorgeous.

I have a dark Midnight Blue R-Line TDI and I have not seen another on the road in that colour.

My commute is 60 miles either way and I don't stuck in too much stop start driving. Quite a few timnes I've seen just over 70mpg on the MFD It drops into the 40s if I'm driving about town. I do have a very smooth driving sstyle though so that helps a lot. reinforced by the fact that I'm still on th...

I have a TDI r-line and drive most of the time in Comfort mode, the chassis does roll a little bit more but not as you describe. In sports mode it doesn't move and is very taught. I have the standard car with 19 inch alloys and Goodyear F1 asymmetric all round. To be honest I have no handling proble...

Cellulose Thinners, cleans the brush even when the paint has dried.

The R-line is a lovely car, nice colour, look after it and it will look after you. Mine is midnight dark blue.

I bought brand new r and it's on 19" with bridgestone tyres and my god is it noisy, especially at motorway speeds. Grip in the dry is good but as soon as it gets a bit wet they have no grip at all, I am mister unimpressed and as soon they get worn I'm swapping them for goodyear f1 assymetric 2...

Never used any of there products or ordered from them. I have used Autofinesse products for 2 years now, superb products and the service is superb.
