Test Drove a Scirocco Today......

Post by Andy Rocc »

Hi guys, I'm fairly new on this forum and although I don't own a scirocco I test drove a used one today. It was a 1.4 TSi 122 BHP 2010 on a 60 plate with 39k on the clock. I was very please with how the car felt and drove, the interior is nice and felt very comfortable. While on the motorway I felt a slight pull to the left and the steering wheel was slightly to the right, could be tracking but could be more? The other thing and this really concerns me is that there was a lot of steam coming from the exhaust, the engine was at normal running temp so there shouldn't be anything coming from the exhaust and while on the motorway in 6th doing 60mph I pushed it hard and the rear filled up with steam, even idling there was a small amount coming out. Other niggles were no iPod cable and no multifunction steering wheel controls even though it was advertised as having them! Don't think I'll be buying this scirocco!

My Scirocco is coming to thr end of 2 year lease, 60 plate with 15k on the clock, 160hp multi function wheel and rear sensors. I noticed BCA are collecting her so I'm guessing she will end up at the blackbushe car auction.
