its out in the shops now, great write up, would appear my suspicion of more low down torque than my old a3's tsi are correct 'the ea888 engine has actually beened to give more to torque than a golf gti mkv at lower revs' so not going mad, they seem to get the idea it of the thing :)

London, Nov 27: Volkswagen’s sexy Scirocco Coupé has bagged Top Gear magazine’s ‘Coveted Car of the Year’ award.

The motor, which costs less than 18,000 pounds, has beaten new Ferraris, Lamborghinis and a Rolls-Royce to take away the title, reports the Sun.

The panel of judges, including include Top Gear TV celebrities Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May, praised the Scirocco as “something special... fun, stylish and, above all, almost affordable”.
