Scirocco Central

Customer servies are terrible! When mine was delivered to the dealers and the day before it was due to be delivered to me my dealer phoned me to say that they wouldnt be able to deliver! The reason for this was that there was a suspected issue with the washers and it had to be checked. They said the...

Mine sits just below 1000 revs so i think that is normal although mine doesnt shake at all. In 4th at 30mph the rev counter is just over 1000, seems to tick over nicely!

May the force be with you!

Very impressive!!! I managed to get 62mpg during rush hour from glasgow to edinburgh along the M8 and i did boot it once or twice, my mileage is just over 1000 so far, bring on the price increase!!!!

Yea I have noticed this but its never bothered me as its only out of line by an inch or two, I have to say though I have found the Scirocco very easy to park and have never even looked out the back window when parking, the drop down mirror and the sensors are the perfect aid, the only other thing it...

Hmmm I wonder!!!

Dont think it will be linked to the same but you never know??

Had some time off work so I decided to go for a nice drive with the Mrs. We started in Glasgow, went to Stirling, onto a place caller Callendar, past Loch Awe. Stopped of at Connel and then onto Oban, from there we drove down towards Campletown before heading back to Glasgow via Loch Fyne and Loch L...

Got myself a new tax disc holder today. Got it on ebay for about 15 quid which was quite reasonable considering the detail put in, they even managed to engrave my number pate onto it! Might not be everybodys cup of tea but each to their own eh!

Ill try and keep an eye out for you too . What area in Edinburgh you at?

Finally managed to give the Roc a wash and a wax. Pics are not very good but you get the idea.

Well after the fiasco with the "quality checks" I now have my Scirocco. It was delivered on a trailer from Leeds and everything was spot on including the washers. Not had the chance to clean it yet due to the weather so hopefully Sunday will be nice enough for me to give it a coat of wax. ...

Lowering springs did cross my mind but have went for the pressure washer. Will no doubt get it lowered anyway. Dont do a lot of motorway miles so cant justify the cruise control.

I would think they mean the Bury kit when they mention retrofitable bluetooth Gav (which is conventional bluetooth), but I could be wrong. can they not take the £200 off as extra discount as it would offset most of your accessories already added.. S Ah I see. I have opted for a pressure washer, was...

Good news :yes: So did they say what all the problem was about??? . Nah, The technicians were over to carry out "quality checks" and check the washers supposedly? Nothing was found and all was ok. Very strange but dont think I will ever know. Lets hope it arrives on thursday, just seen th...

After the fiasco with the Roc and the supposed washers problem VW have kindly given me £200 to spend. The dealer metioned a bluetooth hands free that they can retro fit, not sure what its like or if its compatible with my phone (N97) She even said I could just go and buy some clothes or anything I w...

WOOOHOOO! its finally sorted out. Got a call from the dealer saying that the technician from Germany arrived and was looking at the car, an hour later it was sorted. As thought there was nothing wrong with it! Its now coming on Thursday and as compensation they have given me £200 to spend on somethi...

Gavmac: I hope they haven't registered it yet. As you're waiting so long for your car, insist that its registered as a "10" plate seeing as you'd only have to wait another week. If they've already registered it and you have a firm contracted delivery date that they've passed, i'd threaten...

More news on this fiasco. Spoke to my dealer and she said that there are technicians coming over from Germany to have a look at the 34 cars with this problem. Have you ever heard anythin so stupid, I cant believe there isnt somebody in the UK already to carry out these checks! So it doesnt look like...

Ok another update, well not really..... This time a manager from customer services called me back and said that the issue has been escalated and they know what the checks are "quality checks" and to "check the washers" which is fine. When I asked when I could expect it to be sort...

Hi gavmac, Sorry to hear about your delays, that sucks. Just wondering, is there a chance that your car isn't actually here yet? It is here it was finished build week 4! still no news about it today and to be honest I feel like I dont even want the car anymore this is just getting stupidly out of h...
