eddie_gordo's '09 Rising Blue 2.0 TSI DSG from Portugal

Post by eddie_gordo »

Hi guys,

I've been lurking this forum for some weeks now, and decided to open this thread today. I am from Porto, Portugal and managed to buy, yesterday, a June 2009 rising blue VW Scirocco 2.0 TSI DSG.

Haven't had much time to take pictures of her, but during the weekend I'll try to shoot some better pics, if the sunny Portugal's weather helps!

Still, I managed to shoot a few ones, here they are:

Here, at home this morning:

The RCD510 unit:

DSG:

By the way, the car has a Kufatec Fiscon module installed (I believe that the previous owner installed it as it doesn't seem a VW optional, am I right?). It displays several info in the dashboard like Oil and Water temperature, Turbo boost pressure, and amount of petrol in the tank. I can also connect my phone via bluetooth and it interacts with the RCD510 unit, which I find pretty neat! :) Does anyone has this installed on their Scirocco? Is it possible to play music from the phone via bluetooth with this?

To sum it up, I only have this car for less than 24 hours and I'm extremely happy! I thought I would need more time to adapt to the DSG gearbox (never had an automatic car before) but after a few minutes of driving her I think I'm never going back to manual again. :D

I'll post more pics when I manage to have some time to shoot. :)

Cheers!

Looks like a very well cared for car, especially as it is 5 years old already! Enjoy!

Here's a quick pic from a VW meeting yesterday in Portugal:

Mine's the blue one with the HT on the license plate (the stock one :D ).

So a few weeks ago I retrofitted the bi-xenon headlights on my Rocco. Only today I found some time to give it a proper wash and take some pics:

I am also replacing all the bulbs I can find with LED.. I'm waiting on some ebay deliveries to have LED all around the car, will try to take some pics afterwards. For future mods I'm thinking lowering it with H&R springs. :)

I feel like I don't get any love here because my 'Rocco is almost stock... :D

Here's a pic of her on the move
