Passat V6 Synchro, 1998 and on its way to the crusher...... (scrapage deal)

Crying shame as there's virtualy nothing wrong with it, it's simply worth more crushed than polished!

Traded in a fully loaded 08 BMW 320i M-Sport with iDrive etc. for a 2.0Tsi.
Much more grunt low down, DSG much better around town than manual. However, much thirstier - but might be my new driving style :D

I've just sold my 57 plate Grande Punto Sporting Multijet back to the Fiat dealer for a grand more than anyone else offered me, including through private adverts! Now driving my dad's 1.6 8v T reg Astra Club estate for a few weeks until my Scirocco arrives at the beginning of October....

Corolla 2006, 1.6. Good everyday car just boring. Wanted to sold it privately but found Rocco before I managed to sell it so traded-in. Actually I had a call from interested buyer when I was at VW picking up my new baby.

1997 Rover 820 Sli ........... it's hanging on by its fingernails at the moment, two cylinders with low compression and leaks from the water pump and radiator (now hopefully plugged - for the second time - with radweld etc). Worth 20 times as much for scrappage value as private!
17th October - Now it's finally mine :) :) :)

I have just taken delivery of a 1.4tsi in Rising blue. Traded in an Alfa Brera 2.2SV, lovely car and reliable in comparison to previous Alfa's I've owned but I needed to reduce my running costs. Hopefully the Scirocco will do that that for me.

Welcome Tony!!! I hope the roc lives up to expectations.

i'm scrapping my much loved 306, should have got rid of it at least 2 years ago but glad i ended up not getting round to it now seeing as i'm getting the roc instead. the waiting is killing me though i just want to scrap the damn thing now, at least it is still reasonably reliable.

I'll be trading my 2007 Golf GTi DSG. It's a really nice car but.....had a good look at the Scirocco at last years Paris motor show and I new I wouldn't be able to resist for ever.

The long wait is going to be tough.

I traded in a 2006 Suzuki Swift Sport which I have to say was a great little car and lift off oversteered like a good 'un - reminded me of the 205 Gti in that respect.
