Re: CAR FROM HELL!!!!!!!!!!

Sounds like a lot of bad luck tbh, real shame. I bought my 1.4 tsi with 36000 on it, not had to do a single thing except replace a couple tyres after one got a puncture. I've only had it a year though so maybe the issues are yet to come.

Re: Went to see an R today . . . Help!!!!

Hmmm, don't know about the smoke or anything (although it is typical for all cars to look like smoke coming out the exhaust if the weathers cold, like breathing when it's cold) but I would in general Stacey away from most used cars with over 60000miles, unless you're getting a mega good deal, becaus...

Re: My Salsa

Have you tried holding the lock button for a few seconds after locking the car? Might sound silly but on skoda etc it folds in the mirrors (as well as closing windows like the roc does already) and since vw make skoda might be the same?

Can I make a suggestion?

Re: Can't get comfy!

Ergonomics wise the roc should have absolutely no trouble for a 6'4, I'm 6'1 and always feel super comfy, and I've never seen anything in reviews like this.
Have you straightened the back? Should help with the arm stretching

Re: Advice on Alloys and Wheels

Can I suggest a perhaps much cheaper way of doing this? Ok so I understand you would like the 19" Lugano, but if it's more the colour your going for then I suggest doing as I did - get them painted! I have the 18" interlagos and got the black for about £60 per wheel. Granted I had a slight...

Hi fifer I work as a vehicle buyer for evans halshaw and stratstone motors. Pretty much I buy used cars in a similar way to we buy any car etc. When someone comes in to sell one of the main things I must find out is how comprehensive their service history is.

Re: Scirocco specific questions to ask when buying

Hi, bit late too this but if you've not made your decision a few points to add! First the interior of the newer one is improved a great deal imo, (the dash mostly). Second while I think you should indeed get the newer one I would say £14k seems high for 45000+ miles! I bought my 2010 tdi rocco for 1...

Re: Calling 140tdi owners

I have the 1.4 tsi 160 so not the same as the diesel obv, my time is 7.4 even though officially its 7.7 I think. So you might get slightly better with a manual shift (like mine is). In general though official times are good guide for vw

Re: My R-Line Rocco - Ultra Violet

Sorry but I really dislike the ultra violet colour, it's unique yes, but I think it looks a bit flowery/girly, sorry!
