My 2.0 TSI
Posted: Thu Oct 01, 2020 11:33 am
Picked her up yesterday. Come from a background of older BMWs (M cars, E30 and most recently a 2.8 Z3), but none ULEZ compliant unfortunately so I needed something fun to plug the gap. Scirocco seemed to tick the boxes. It’s a manual, 2.0 GT TSI in shadow blue, leather, panoramic roof and on 97k miles.
Got home with it yesterday and turns out the battery was shot, so replaced with a Varta - so far so good. Owned a mk4 Golf before and know how weird the electrics can be on VWs, so keeping everything crossed I’ve had my initial bad luck
Anyway, here she is. Might upgrade the nav unit so I have Android connection (recommendations for plug and play?), and may find something a little fruitier to replace the stock back box. Not really interested in remapping or lowering. It’s an occasional car for me to blat back to Suffolk from London in or the occasional family day out when I don’t want to use the family whip.
Looking forward to using the forum as I’ve been on many before for previous cars and it’s usually the place to go for all questions.
