Scirocco Central

Well, picked up my new Scirocco on Saturday in a journey that involved a 620 mile round trip and selling my old Z4 in the process. Here she is in all her standard OEM glory.



Car as I picked it up is pretty much stock, spec includes:

• Leather Heated Seats
  Winter Pack
  Xenon Headlights
  DAB/Bluetooth/Satnav Head Unit
  Elec Heated mirrors
  Rear Parking Sensors
  ACC Adaptive Chassis Control
  Cruise Control
  Dual Climate Control

Initial plans to come include:

• Lowering on H&R Springs
  Gloss Black roof wrap
  Gloss Black wing mirrors
  Gloss Black Interior Trim
  New Alloy Wheels
  Colour coded side strips and lower grill
  Vinyl Headrest Decals
  REVO Remap

Cheers

Looks lovely mate - have you already changed led bulbs or was that previous ownerr??

You says its got Bi-Directional Xenon but they don't look like xenons to me?

Only bulbs I've changed are two LED's in the interior dome lights as one had gone, went for a slightly blueish hue and can't fault them.

Definitely Xenons, just a dark picture probably

Looks nice in white.
Dont look like Xenons to me either. Even so you can't get directional xenons on the Scirocco.
My dad has them on his Octavia and they are great at night. Take a bit of getting used to though.

Here's a clearer pic, they're definitely Xenons



Not sure if they were retrofitted or what but they're "bi directional" too, in that you turn the steering wheel and the lights turn to light up the way the wheel points?

Yay for Xenons!
The xenons have a separate halogen cornering light which is only active up to about 25mph (I think it's 40kph?) .
As opposed to actual cornering xenons where the xenon unit turns.

how did you find the z4? brainstorming next cars and considering an e90 m3 or z4m.

Ah fair enough it could be that then, I was told by the owner that was called Bi-Directional All I know is I turn the wheel and it lights up sideways.

Loved the Z as a pure driving car, though now I've got the Scirocco not sure I could go back to living with one as a daily. One of the best cars I've driven for power, performance, fun and kerb appeal. but distinct lack of comfort, practicality and mod cons.

Would definitely have one as a weekend/second fun car again in the future, or would consider an E89.

Not really an update as such, but a new car is as good an excuse as any to splash out on some new kit

I saw the ad for the car and the seller was confused. The are Bi-Xenons which means the same Xenon bulb does dipped and main beam via a shutter mechanism.

As said above, they have a static cornering light.

This explains it better;

Very small update and one that probably isn't to everyones taste.

VW Detail on the headrests, just felt it broke them up slightly rather than a sea of black, looks awesome with the new slightly blue tinted LEDs.



Next up is probably debadge and black VW badges, before I start to look at H&R springs and new wheels.

Like the little badge on the headrest actually.

Thanks Xjay

Here's a shot of those badge details through the windscreen. Definitely a fan of them myself, just break it up nicely. Considering doing my name or initials underneath but not sure if that will look a bit too boy racer or tacky...

Thank you mate. Does it fit just for leather seats?

Yeah won't stick to cloth seats but was fine with leather, just requires patience to both apply and measure correctly to get it exactly where you want it

After a full wash including Snowfoam, clay bar, polish and wax.
