Scirocco Central

Cheers mate, it's great around the lakes for epic scenery and with the car being such a piercing white, it really pops on the landscape!

Congrats on the car, it looks fantastic!, il be taking delivery of an Indium DSG next week, coming out of a mk7 Golf R manual (fantastic car), couple of questions, What tyres did yours come on?, also how do you find the ride quality with DCC, and what mode are you tending to prefer? Cheers Thanks m...

They asked for the 3 months worth initial payment now so I paid by debit card over the phone rather than risk having a cheque bounce as the cheque book was from the last decade. Paperwork in the post but the car is not at the dealers yet. Hopefully I'll get a call to organise everything soon as the...

Good to hear you love the car. Paid my deposit today so I should have it maybe middle of next week.

Wast Water in West Cumbria, about 20 minutes from where I live.

I haven't paid a deposit yet......???

Customary trip in to the lakes to get a couple of photos!

Love the car.

Took delivery of the R today, very happy, great drive, took it in to the lakes for a customary photo! Quick question, whats the 'sweet spot' (DSG) rev range to get that 'burble' sound from the exhaust (up/ down shift?)... very addictive! http://i921.photobucket.com/albums/ad51/MrHammonds/IMG_2017030...

Thanks for the responses, I've just been out for about 60 miles this afternoon and thoroughly enjoyed myself (I live round the lakes in Cumbria).

Only hit 4k revs and 60% throttle, I'll take it up gradually for piece of mind.

Cheers.

Morning, Just had my new Sirocco R delivered... very happy! Its only just occurred to me that I have never actually owned a new car and had to 'break one in'. I've had a search online but can't seem to find any actual VW 'approved' information, just lots of conflicting forum posts! So, what's the cr...

Hi again, So yeh, I didn't even realise you could track with VW and the day that I did with my 8 digit code, I was emailed to say the car was in dealer stock and to arrange a delivery date. 3rd March was the earliest but I'm away on a course, so mines being delivered 6th March. I've gone from a Hond...

Sorry haven't replied for ages, totally forgot about the post. Yeh I've just got my reg allocated and they are saying 1st March delivery for me (hopefully). I didn't spec any other options because I wanted to stay under £300, so I just got the white at a little/ no extra cost. I used Gateway2Lease, ...

Evening guys, Just saying hi and introducing myself. Got my new Scirocco R coming soon, got a cracking lease deal (at least I think it is... unless proved otherwise haha!). Ended up getting a White Scirocco R DSG for £300 a month (3 month up front of £900) on a 3 year lease with 10k miles a year. Ca...
