I saw a total of 9 Sciroccos on the road yesterday on my travels from leicestershire to hampshire... i think its becoming a bit too common now...
There was:
1 red
1 black
2 green
1 rising blue
4 white!!!
i also saw:
4 mk 5 golf gti's
2 mk 5 golf R32's
2 audi R8's
1 lamborghini gallardo
... and i actually saw a bugatti veyron on the A46!!!
was anybody on these road that I may have gone past yesterday:
A46, M1, M40, A505, M25, M3, A327, A3013
I'm seeing at least 3-4 every time I travel on the motorway these days... usually Black or White although I have seen a few blue, silver and viper green ones! The rarest appear to be the silvery gold colour (not sure what that is, but only seen 1), grey and dark blue...
Personally think silver looks the most boring of all the colours i have seen it in...
By the way, is it just me or since the diesel came out have there been loads more about?? Reckon they should look a little different as it is by no means the same car as the 2.0 TSI...!
Options: It came with DSG, RCD510 with MDI, 17" wheels, cruise control, parking sensors, xenon lights, black leather seats, bluetooth, and a lot of other things I can't remember right now..

as much as i dislike diesels, i think this would be alittle unfair lol.
we should all remember that most diesel owners don't really want a diesel but are forced to have one (due to milage and company car tax)
i would say 6 out of 10 diesel owners would prefer to have a petrol car
Well, considering my last 2 cars were diesels and did 45,000 miles last year, I thought long and hard before moving back to petrol. The interesting part is, pound for pound, I'm not finding much difference. I am actually thinking it's cheaper in my petrol 'rocco.
Reason for this being, I used to fill up my Audi with £60-70 of diesel and then cover 500-550 miles. Having now switched to the 'rocco, i'm getting to fill it up for £40-45 and I can get around 320-360 miles out of this. So this is roughly equating pound per mile, with my old diesel!!!! Also bear in mind that the diesels are typically more expensive to acquire. In this case obviously the diesel 'rocco is a bit less, but far less of a car for the money. My A4 was nearly £30k when new...

weve just been told that our car scheme is changing from a 'lease vehicle' to a defined car scheme, that means no more petrol models,..and limited choice, just as well i got my 2.0 TSI in before the change, but it will be oil burners from now on..
Nothing wrong with a few diesels on th road lol
I am to a diesel owner but that was all down to the company having a conract on them. But to be honest i love it all the same
We need to make sure we all have to forums stickers in the windows this is the only time i will bother posting a spotted !!!
As I was filtering through the traffic on my bike I passed a Viper Green Scirocco GT on the Forth Bridge about 5pm today, it stuck out like a sore thumb...
