The Scirocco offers an R-Line exterior package that adds new bumpers, aerodynamic side skirts and a rear spoiler. There's also fog lights, a revised grille and 18-inch Salvador-style alloy wheels.
Buyers can also order an R-Line interior package that includes a leather-wrapped sport steering wheel, fabric / Alcantara seats and a black headliner. The package also adds Carbon Touch trim, piano black accents, stainless steel pedals and R-Line branded sill plates.

Looks very "photoshoped" Wheels look way bigger than 18" and suspension looks alot lower than standard, however if thats how it will look then

Yes looks lovely only problem is you will have to lower it and fit wheel spacers to make it look decent, as the pic

Current R-Lines have 19" wheels so I would expect these wheels to be also 19".

I priced one of these up at the weekend with a couple of extras on Vw's site. Came out at about 36k odd for the highest powered deisel

This might be a daft question but does the R-line look like the image above or this one?? On VW's website it shows both!!

No, the photo clearly shows an R-line badge. All I can think is if you specify the Xenons you get a diferent front bumper. Can anyone confirm?

But check their brochure for the R-line, it shows the GT bumper. I'm finding it all very confusing!

Just spoken to VW UK who have told me the website is wrong. The R-line comes with the same front bumper as the GT. Its due to be updated within the next couple of days.

Well that would definitely put me off now then. So you get leather R embossed seats & different wheels options now to separate it from a gt?

You do get the skirts, a different shaped rear bumper (R style) However the light config will be the same as the GT at the front not the R-Line single LED bar with the bumper.
This is probably the best visualisation of the car body kit wise however other colours and slightly different wheels are available in the UK market

It puts me off too! They will have to correct their brochure, as well as online, as that shows the incorrect bumper also.
