Scirocco Central

Hey Jd5, Your right of course, its only a 2.0 engine size. I meant it more in the power bhp area. it seemed like a big jump to me. think its 265bhp scirocco to 360bhp a45. The car is lovely to drive but I will admit it is far more tempting to drive antisocially. I haven't missed the R since the firs...

Hey marmaluke, Was looking through my old posts. Cant speak for others or myself really as I read my old comments....little bit laughing. i part ex'd the Tdi about a year after and got the R version. although in the year i had it , ran smooth no problems. and just part ex'd the R for an A45 AMG Read...

Hey Guys, Firstly The Scirocco R I owned since 2010 from new. Upgraded from a GT Rocco and the R blew it away. Fantastic Car. I was in talks with vw about the new Golf R as I was interested in the 4 wheel drive side of things and sad to say it the extra back doors. As down the line should babies arr...

Hey, I also had the front tyres wear out at only 7000 miles. The Bridgestone Potenza on picking up the car I can only fault for the wearing out but the handling and grip was amazing. I was happy to order these again however I needed to change asap and was talked into Hankooks Evos at a terrible comp...

It Is The Bluetooth. I swapped Mine out of MY2010 R for a newer one that supported the Iphone 4 /S
So Dont Rip it out lol

I had my R serviced and Whilst I was there mentioned about the Rattle in the doors. After a test drive the VW guys agreed it was not right. Originally they warned taking the doors apart could make it worse once re fitted. Anyway, I left the car and had a day of driving a nice but very slow golf mk6....

As already mentioned the R doesnt come in Red. Though it would look good in Red so they screwed up. I agree and would also reccommend the Rear Parking Sensors. The other options you have said are all ace. Any cheap options might be a good idea as mine didnt have the folding mirrors and a quote to ha...

Hey, I swapped out my maunal Roc GT for a R DSG. I was a manual Driver through and through. When I got My R there wasnt many available and skeptically went for the DSG without even test driving one b4 or even seeing my R beforehand. I havent looked back Its far better than I could have ever imagined...

How did it go ? I eventually 2-3 weeks ago just b4 the snow hit ended up changing the car. I wasnt up for travelling down myself. forgot to check my posts for a long time,... sorry

hey chojin, Im afraid I have not had it dyno'd as there main location was too far away. In honesty the through the wheels is something I didnt really think about. I know the performance is great and I'm well happy with it. Andy is right about the wheel part though, just checked it up on their websit...

I agree a Remapped R will be worth seeing. I have also specced my current options onto the R and am hitting around 30k. Expenisive but in some defense the car is great looking, already lowered, upgraded brakes etc. I cant justify spending that much money as far as logic goes, but I want one anyway. ...

I must have missed it, I havent seen your post, I tried looking there but couldnt find it. I have seen the new steering wheel on ebay and some other sites though what i want to know is the left and right buttons, which are new will not work,,,thats not my concern, its that will the other buttons sti...

Hey guys, Just wanted to add ive read alot on this site and following others advice ,, clayed my car after using the 2 bucket method . followed by some wax,,,ideally i wanted to polish and wax more than one coat but it has got dark... a conclusion,,the clay is amazing!! If the weather is good 2moro ...

My car is 2009 and the indicator stalk method does not work. I had the car plugged into a Vag Com system today and the car just refuses to turn them off. very irritating.

The fog lights are more trouble than their worth,, it was very foggy the other night so I thought I would turn my fogs on,,they came on ,, though my main headlights went off leaving me doing 70mph in the dark..was not good.

congratulations on the car it's a shame ive got to wait for a year to get mine! I must ask you is the company offering good aftercare, those gains sound mightly impressive almost too good to be true. Are any components upgraded accordingly or is still within tolerances of the oem equipment? I mean ...

Hey guys, Just an update on my remap.. All done.. The guys who did it seems to think its now as quick as the petrol version,,they were quoting 197 to 200. and undetectable..With a modified turbo up to 230bhp and Im getting details about a turbo that looks standard but isnt :) tomorrow. After it was ...

+1 where are you getting the remap? I'm only aware of gains of around 35bhp, taking it to around 185bhp, not 195... Hey guys, Im getting it done with a company called celtic tuning. Im actually having it done later on today. Check out their website http://www.celtictuning.co.uk" onclick="...

Received My Rising Blue Scirocco GT a week or so ago and happy to report the car it totally awesome. It is fantastic to drive and makes my old mk 5 golf seem like my first car, a citroen saxo lol I have went for the diesel 140 version as I didnt see why a remap by vw was worth an extra 1k That bein...
