Scirocco Central

Looking good - is the front number plate going to sit permanently on the dash - not long till you get pulled by the Rozzers me thinks !! Lol TJ

Ian,

The question should be - Will the Forum have you back ??

Thinking the grass is greener and all that !!! Lol

Sorry - not for me - too much going on with that front-end - and Red mirrors !!!

Cuprabob, Sorry I should have explained - I've had my Roc since Mar 2010 - did 7.5k miles in Scotland before coming out to Oz in Jan 2011 - it was then put into storage till Nov 2011 when I finally brought my Roc out to Perth,Oz - since being here for 18 months it has only done 4,000 kms - I only us...

I need a new battery for my 2010 TDi 170 - can anyone recommend a make and model and also what Amp//Hr should I be looking for ?? Thanks in advance TJ

Imi007,

Love what you have done to your Roc - but spoilt by all the Revo etc stickers I'm my opinion !! TJ

Nice Roc - in the right colour too !!

Not sure about all the screws holding the rear skirt on - could they not have glued it ??

Hi Eire, As Thommo said - I bought my car from VW through Gareth at Niche and he converted it to my spec - 2.5 years later I still love my Roc to the point I couldn't leave it in Scotland and brought it over to Perth, Australia with me. Only yesterday in the supermarket car park a guy came over to m...

Longman,

Looking good - that first picture is that under the bridge at the Rocks ?? Needs a personalised number from Rego me thinks !!
I'm across East at the end of April for my birthday staying in Manly - will look out for any Roc's driving about !! TJ

Yeah - we went a few years ago - split the holiday between beach part Varadero and Havana. Was amazed how many buildings still had that iconic Che Ghevara image on them. We also went to Ernest Hemingway's bar/cafe, A cigar factory and had a look in that museum in the centre with the Ghevara/Castro b...

Mac135, Dynaudio is worth every penny - or cent here in Oz !! The sound quality is superb. Is the RNS510 standard in the R over here ?? Different specs for different countries. All in all I love driving the Roc over here - mine is 2 years old next month and has only done 13k kms - due to sitting in ...

Not many in Perth either - I imported my 2.0 Tdi 170 with full Rieger bodykit and R8 front end out in Nov '11 and haven't seen any others YET !! http://www.scirocconet.co.uk/forum/scirocconet-expats-t10948.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Going over east - Sydney in Apr ...

Aye Aye,

Thanks for that - working perfectly now !! TJ

Hi All,

Need a bit of help - I received my Scirocco over here in Perth last week and am trying to pair my iPhone 4 to my in-car Fiscon system - it recognises my Fiscon on my iphone but asks for a Pin No - does anyone know what the default pin code is ?? Thanks TJ

The same happened to me when I got a chip on the passenger side windscreen - when the Autowindscreens came out to my house he told me if I wanted it replaced it wouldn't be a genuine VW windscreen with the black dots behind the rear view mirror - so because of this I got it fill repaired for 10 GBP ...

Octagon, Where in Australia are you - I'm in Perth, WA and shipping my Roc over from the UK next month - as far as I have read on this forum and the other UK Roc forum the rear 2 bucket seats have Isofix and you should have no problems with a childseat. If you are in WA - you could always bring your...

Handed over my pride and joy this morning to a storage facility and must admit I had a tear in my eye as I drove away. We are flying out to Perth, Australia next week for 4 years and was in a predicament what to do with my Scirocco - I had ordered it in Jul '09 - delivered 01-Mar-10 with a full Reig...

Kane1210,

I have a Rising Blue with Lugano's - look at my posts under "teejay212" on this site!!TJ

Rosie,

What did you end up ordering and did you get a better deal than Niche somewhere ??

Rosie, I can vouch for Gareth at Niche - I bought my Roc 170TDi GT from him in March this year - he then did a full Rieger conversion for me - he provides a really professional service second to none. In Glasgow the most discount I was getting from VW was £500-£800 - I got a £2,000 discount from Gar...
