Scirocco Central

Hi everyone, getting my TSI on July 7 and parting with my beloved Cooper s. Switching to a car with a similar go kart feel but with a superior built quality without doubt! Anyone else made the same switch from mini?

Seems like a long wait since April but 3 days to go!

Pics will follow!

ive not come from a mini but, i hadn't noticed the ejector seat option on the list when i was ordering mine

how much did that set you back hahaha

Yeah it's a new 2010 option!

I switched from a mini. Not regreting it at all. I was in the market for a JCW but the ride was shocking, it was way overpriced and getting the same performance as a revo mapped roc would have been expensive. You'll love it.

Been driving the roc for over a week now and absolutely love it. No regrets losing the mini as the roc is a much better car. The biggest thing I notice is the superior build quality. Don't have the dashboard rattles and the sound insulation is fantastic.

YEP....

We are going from a R56 Cooper S to a 2.0tsi.....our car has just turned up today at the dealers....
Hope we wont be dissapointed...

You won't regret it. The roc feels more solid than the mini and certainly has more torque and handles better

Kenny, you'll love it. The roc feels like an absolute bargain after the mini plus you can fit people with legs in the back

I agree after the mini the legroom is like a stretch limo!

We did have a pretty short test drive in a TSI and it only had 20miles on the clock with 3 up........but it didnt feel quite as quick as the chipped Mini turbo.....but im sure the Rocco wont stay standard for long......
