Re: Thinking of buying another
I find the pre-facelift to be a bit too rounded in the corners. The new one is much prettier, but to each his own. Sold mine a few months back, now I drive an E-pace. It´s a good car, the first car I ever had with more than two doors (I am 45 years). I miss my R, but it was three years old and start...

Re: Reversing Camera
Old post, but...
I am in Sweden, drive a 2016 Scirocco R and I have a reverse camera. I think it was standard. But since the post is old, maybe it´s standard nowadays everywhere!

The new wheels fitted!
Thanks to this forum for all the help on my stupid newbie questions regarding ET, wheelsizes and whatnot. The information on the Swedish homepages are somewhat lacking, so I have learned alot here. Anyway, quick and dirty of the new cheapish 20" inch wheels, the car is a bit filthy but my local...

Re: Last check - Fitting wheeels
I hear you!
I think I will go with the 235s. I just need to be careful around the curbs.
Thank you very much for your response sir!

ET on the Scirocco R
Hello, Buying new rims (been searching for a while) and depending on which wheel-sites I look on, it´s either ET33 or ET42. I am guessing ET33 and ET42 for the regular Scirocco, but since I probably am ordering online, it would be great to know for sure. Mine is 2016 R. Thanks again, great forum! Ni...

Re: Another will-they-fit question regarding 20" alloys
Thanks for your response sir, much obliged!
The rims are 8,5", and I just got a response from the seller, they are ET45.
My car is stock, I don´t have anything active when it comes to dampenings or something like that (settings for smooth rides and for racing so to speak).

Another will-they-fit question regarding 20" alloys
Hello again, I am so sorry to bother you with these questions, but I got such a swift response last time, so I thought that I´d try once more. Found another set of nice used alloys/rims. They were originally mounted on a Golf V Gti. The only difference I can see is the ET, that is 42 on the Scirocco...

Re: 20" inch 9,5" possible?
Great info Cuprabob!
I´m going to skip those rims, I would be more comfortable without spigot rings. But they would look good, I am sure....
Thank you for your assistance!!!
