Re: Insurance
I'm with Chris Knott as well. Only had my licence for 3 years and one years no claims but they still quoted £400 for the year. Very pleased and the service is great. Got my GAP insurance through them for £100 or so. Great customer service, very helpful when I wanted to add people onto my insurance t...

Re: What did you do to your Scirocco today?
Back from the first long distance trip in the Roc. Surrey, England to Fife, Scotland. No problems at all. More in love with the car than ever. I'll be washing/waxing the car this weekend and hoping to get some of the muck off her.

Re: VW and 4 wheel alignment
Yes.
I actually want to keep the car now instead of give it back to VW.

Re: My Scirocco - 2.0 TSi 210 R Line
Seems as though my water pump is on its way out. High pitched whistling noise in the cabin.
Time to drink all of the VW Dealership's coffee again.

Re: VW and 4 wheel alignment
All is well, alignment is sorted and I have a cheque from VW for £108 in my back pocket.

Re: My Scirocco - 2.0 TSi 210 R Line
Near Guildford but I grew up in SE London so I am around a fair bit. I'd be up for a meet.
Whereabouts do you guys usually get together?

Re: My Scirocco - 2.0 TSi 210 R Line
Thanks, Luke. Couldn't resist getting another black car! I took a look at your thread the other day, I would have no chance getting in and out the drive with yours. She's a real head turner! Re mods, subtle looks for the time being I think until I'm a little bit more comfortable with the car. Bit of...

My Scirocco - 2.0 TSi 210 R Line
Finally got around to taking some pictures of my new Scirocco. So here she is after her first decent clean since delivery (interior and exterior - mostly Meguiars products - personal preference). Deep Pearlescent Black with the R Line body kit (which makes it pretty difficult to get in and out of my...

Re: VW and 4 wheel alignment
Lee, thank you so much for your post. I knew it wasn't right and you have confirmed it for me.
There's a case of beer with your name on it if I'm ever up your way (or come to any forum meets)

Re: VW and 4 wheel alignment
Thanks, andy.
Having looked at your print out, I can tell that mine is wayyy off. I don't think it's down to tyres on mine, I made VW put two new tyres on her before delivery (at their cost) and they just couldn't be bothered to do a decent job. She was tracking perfectly on the test drive.

Re: VW and 4 wheel alignment
Considering it took them 5 hours to do the alignment I'm not pleased at all. It wouldn't surprise me if it were down to laziness. The alignment was so out when they delivered it that the steering wheel was an inch and a half to the left, it's still about half an inch to the left. Not good enough. Ca...

Re: VW and 4 wheel alignment
Align my car website is down until the 21st July. Would have gone there otherwise. Local place to my work does it for £60 plus VAT. I was thinking of making a trip to Chesham for Wheels In Motion but I'm in two minds. Now I need to harass VW for my spare key. Wish me luck. I'm hoping that I'll start...

Re: VW and 4 wheel alignment
If I didn't love the car, I would have driven it straight through their showroom window by now. You have no idea what a joke this entire thing has been!
Thank you anyway.

Re: VW and 4 wheel alignment
Right, decided not to take the car back to VW as I don't trust them and it turns out that whilst they told me it was "laser alignment", it's apparently not. Anyone know of any decent Hunter alignment places in Surrey? I'm in Godalming, Surrey but would be prepared to travel if necessary. T...

Re: VW and 4 wheel alignment
VW dealership carried it out. Wary of going anywhere else in case they mess it up even more. I'm in Surrey.

VW and 4 wheel alignment
New member to the forum. Got my 2.0 TSi 210 R Line a few weeks ago. When it was delivered the tracking wasn't right. Steering wheel to the left and had to make adjustments constantly on the motorway. I took it back, they did their "4 wheel alignment". It's still not right. Whilst I know a ...

Re: 2014 F1 topic
Fantastic weekend!!
Stayed in the nearby Hilton and bumped into some of the Williams team.
Very sunburnt but very pleased at the result.
