Scirocco Central

Now the good news, I've been offered £19.5K back for the roc against a GTI which means in 11000 miles I’ve lost about £1500. For me the appeal is the practicality but I just think it looks better. Like I said, each to his own. The Rocco was a great car for me and I'm sure the Golf will too. 19k isn...

Anyone think the R will hit the 2.0TSI's residuals?

Although a great drive, the BMW is a bit boring and Im only 30, so I really fancy the Scirocco. Boring to look at for sure, but not at all boring to drive! Driven many cars (hired) for the past 3 years, one of them a 320d which I drove for 6 months up untill I got my Scirocco. I thought it was bril...

Usless without keyless start if you ask me...

I would if she was in the slightest bit interested in driving it...

Also surprised how many people took a CD changer. Yes, me to, but then it is possible some people have ticket it only because they have it in the car even though it was standard rather than an option on the non SAT-NAV cars. It's a little bit like you ticking the Hill hold option despite the fact t...

Nope...

Not really... (suprising that is!)

tbh, I'd reject the car. It's not the spec you wanted and the parking sensors are 3rd party. I very much doubt he/she can. As jc74 mentioned, he was told the car had parking sensors, he was never told they would be factory fitted. I would try and get something out of them, at least some money of th...

I was actually going to post a similar thread. I’m getting no more than 21mpg mainly town driving but a bit of motorway here and there. It seems really bad to me, and I was expecting it to do much better. Obviously not anywhere close to the Diesels I was driving for a couple of years prior to the Ro...

Hi BenH,
Using the search facility would bring up a few useful threads on the subject...
I think you will find the following interesting:

Btw, are you satisfied with the glass sunroof, concerning road noise when it's even closed? I have heard some comments about slightly annoying road noise with it. Also Top Gear refers as a tip to avoid getting a rocco with a sunroof. Nonsense I can assure you, as already been determined in another ...

Not sure where all you guys live, but I have still not seen more then 4-5 since I first got mine, and not seen a single one in about 4 weeks.

Seems everybody posting here has cloth so the opinions are biased. Personally I thought the cloth looked cheap and the mesh in particular felt cheap and rough – it reminded me of tacky cloths from Primark. Yes leather is expensive but it is the best value for money option in my opinion. I can’t und...

Sounds to me like JPZ1000 is not asking how to do it, but rather why it has stopped working for him...

Looks like I could fit a MEDIA-IN (p/n 5N0 057 342) but it doesn't say anything about compatibility with a CD changer too :( Not so simple... You can fit one yes, but it won't work with the CD changer which will have to be disconnected. In addition it won't read song information for some reason eve...

you can only upload to the Hard drive from a SD card. I gave up on copying music and bought a 250Gb passport drive to keep in the arm rest connected to the USB port. Works quite well. Thanks stan, that's what I thought. Wish I could just do what you have done, or just connect an iPod but unfortunat...

Liked the lines of the car more in white

I like the white, especially with the Pan-roof, but the darker colours show the car's carves / lines much more.

You can set the temperature but manually by turning the dials, rather than the digital display (hope this makes sense...)
