Re: Steering wheel not perfectly straight...?

FYI, mine is just the same... it's so slight that I'm not too fussed.

Re: What don't you like about your Rocco?

My gripes are: -gap between wheel and arch -no side skirts... really looks like it's missing it -no diffuser style on the rear -DRL -accelerator padel being too close -(could be wrong) no rear cup holders -steeling wheel goes to the right a little and is too high But that's it really... I love it :c...

Re: Finally it's here! :-)

I must admit that coming from an Astra sport hatch, the rear visability in the Scirocco is pretty good... because the back is pretty flat you can see the end of the car pretty easily. The parking sensors are nice but not essential

Re: Daytime Running Lights

I can't decide if I'd want them completely off or just the side lights - I think possibly that the rear looks better with the lights off - but like the side light on the front :?

Re: Bedding in brakes

The brakes are well sharp... it's quite dangerous when you drive another car as you for forget you need to be more heavy on the brakes - found it quite scary really :oops:

It's not right but you do get used to it.

Can you just keep changing the mapping? Or can you only install it once, and uninstall it once?

Re: Modding a lease car

Yeah I'm in this position... I would like a body kit but the lease thing is stopping me, I don't think it could simply be taken back off after 3 years - if so I probably would, as then I could sell them on ;) Wheels are a no no for me as the lease includes maintenance so don't think they wouldn't no...

Re: Studie R20

The white looks more white than the Scirocco Candy white which looks a little creamy to me.

Anyway, that defuser looks ace - any pics of it anywhere?

Re: Well Gents - My Car Is Finally Here!

My bad points: 1. Driving position - The accelerator pedal... I don't like the pushing it down rather than back (audi/vw style)... it's too close and upright (puts your foot at a right angle)... and you have to move your whole foot to press the brake - no heel and toe :( and then the clutch is too f...
