My new ambulance Scirocco

Hi, thought you might like to see some pics of my new Scirocco 2.0Tdi GT. Ordered in July 2009 and only delivered in late December! I am an officer with London Ambulance Service so the car is retro-fitted with full 999 kit by CTS Limited in London. Standard kit includes magnetic roof beacon, twin LE...

Re: MDI on 2010MY Scirocco

My car is being built in early November, not sure which week. I believe it has been given a build slot but my lease company haven't given me the detail. Do you think I'd be able to cancel the CD changer? The only reason I specified it in the first place was because it actually brought back a lower l...

Re: MDI on 2010MY Scirocco

Sorry, to clarify - I upgraded to the DVD Navigation. I will be pretty frustrated if I find that I have sacrificed the MDI just for the CD changer- I never listen to CDs but I do love listening to the iPod in the car. Is it possible to remove the changer and retrofit the MDI after delivery?

MDI on 2010MY Scirocco

Unless I'm very much mistaken, the MDI for iPod was an option on the 2009 model year. I see now that it is standard on all models. When I ordered my new 2.0 GT (July 09) I included a CD changer as, bizarrely enough, it actually brought the lease cost down (this is a company car). Will the MDI still ...

Re: problem with dsg

Does anyone know whether VW are planning a fix for this problem? When my Scirocco finally arrives I will be using it as an unmarked Ambulance car - i.e. there will be a lot of fast driving. The last thing I need is the gearbox slipping into neutral when I'm tearing down a road on blue lights...

Re: VW reduces production of the Scirocco

I ordered a 2.0TDi GT in mid-July 2009 as a company car. I was originally quoted 10wks by the lease company, but when I asked for an update today I was told it would now be delivered on 23rd November! I was told that every build slot for this year has gone, and most of next year's allocation has alr...
