Scirocco Central

Bought this beast in January...











Loving it so far, managed to clock up a good 8k which I've loved every minute of (with the exception of the white van man incident...), glad I got the spec I did

very nice

I like this!

Looks great, how have you found the diesel engine?

Absolutely excellent, a real engaging drive and enough kick to really appreciate it. Its certainly not as quick as my previous civic type-r but it has fantastic torque and the DSG gearbox with the paddles is great. I test drove both the 140 and the 170bhp engines and decided not to scrimp and want the 170 but to wait out for the right car with the faster engine. I'm really glad I did, I've driven the 140 a few times since and whilst its quick it just doesnt have the pull and acceleration of mine

Its not much but its a start... Now since I've just spent an hour looking and pricing LEDs, spoilers, tints, interior mods, alloy wheel coaters etc the question is whats the next mod as I'm well aware its a slippery slope!

On that note, any recommendations for bodyshops etc that can do simple things like the LED mods etc down near Reading - I'm not that way minded and would prefer the pro finish rather than mincing, getting pissed off and breaking stuff (I do enough of this with my bike).

and some sad photos (now repaired though)... damn white van man rammed me on a roundabout
