What can I say faultless love the small changes they have made ie. front & rear bumpers, wheels, lights, interior dials and not to forget the extra BHP just a awesome machine.

Re: My new Scirocco R facelift model
Hi Brian,
I picked up my Viper R on 1st November, well chuffed with it and I was overjoyed with my rising blue GT TSi before it.
I had the mirror tops painted Viper green before I took it away as I HATED the chrome topped mirror covers. They did the same with the GTS made the mirror tops a different colour than the rest of the car.
still driving round with a ridiculously silly grin across my face 500 miles later!

Re: My new Scirocco R facelift model
Yes, on higher emission cars the 1st year's ved is higher. Think you're self lucky my R32 was £485 per year.Brian1970 wrote:Really?Luke.08 wrote:thats just 1st year tax. the 1st year tax on my R was the same. but after that its 260 a year

Hi Brian,
congratulations for your ride... it's beautiful. I just have a quick question: can you confirm me that the R TSI motor is the EA113 version?

Sorry your getting too technical for me bud ?
Re: My new Scirocco R facelift model
The updated EA888 motor (the same of the actual Golf R 300hp or Seat Leon Cupra 280hp) has a chain driven cam rather than belt like EA113. Rumors say that the Scirocco R facelift still has the EA113 cam belt ..

Re: My new Scirocco R facelift model
Mmm would have to ask Vw that question but I do know it's BHP is 280 if that's helps.
