Scirocco Central

Are you depressing the clutch when you hit the start button? (Assuming it’s manual)

Very nice!
Quite rare to see a red one and I think it does suit the car really well.
Love the wheels - Audi I think?
Enjoy it.

We have exactly the same model but a 2015. Love it - our second Scirocco (GT 140 before) but this one is far better. Looks better (vents in bumpers finish it off nicely at the rear), better spec and the 184 is so much quicker than the 140 diesel. Good economy too, even when gunning it abroad. Cheap ...

Nope. People often put vinyl wrap on the roof, I assume so it looks like the panoramic roof.

Thanks guys.
Warranty expires 20th March so should get something soon then.
If not I’ll contact them.
Cheers.

The factory warranty on my car will be expiring soon (March).
Does anyone know how long before warranty expires that VW write & offer you an extended warranty?
Thanks.

Evening all. So I travelled from Manchester to Glasgow yesterday to view the Scirocco. Had a great, long test drive and thoroughly impressed. Car was gleaming, interior spotless, and a full VW service history. The 19's were in excellent condition, with plenty of tread left on the Goodyears fitted t...

My 2015 R Line has it too.

A bit of a late reply but it might still be useful. I have both an '09 Scirocco and an '09 A4 and although they share quite a lot, they feel different. The A4 is quieter, has a smoother ride, has a bigger boot and will seat four in greater comfort. Its steering is pretty much lifeless and there is ...

You'll be fine with a Scirocco as a motorway car. On my second now and every year we've taken them to Europe on autobahns all day with no worries at all and great fuel consumption even when gunning it! Current 184TDi is on 19" wheels and it's only harsh on really bad roads (no ACC on later ones...

Don't know if there is an official one but why not try a motorcycle cargo net? They have hooks on each corner so hook them onto the luggage hooks in the boot.
It might work for you (depending what you need to carry).

Well I'd go for the diesel Scirocco because it's got more torque, performance difference is minimal, it'll be far better on fuel & road tax is cheap.
I'm on my second Roc TDI now & have been very happy with both (I do drive a TDI Passat for work so maybe I'm biased with diesels!)

Here's the guy I used - highly recommended:

I was told that when we bought our first Scirocco - a 2011. Bought it used (from a Jaguar dealer actually), went to a local VW dealer who said it couldn't be done. Had one fitted by a great company called Professional Retrofits - perfect job and using all VW parts. Never had an issue with warranty o...

184 TDI R Line is a great car.
It's quick enough, looks the part, well specced and is good on fuel & has cheap tax.
And it's a Scirocco!
Go & drive one.....

I think Cuprabob is right - I remember reading the latest brochure the week before we got the car & seeing it had the Discover system then being disappointed that ours didn't have it. Discover is much better - (my Passat has it) - much better screen etc.

Good choice! Mine's a 2015 but I don't think too much has changed. To answer your questions in order: 1) Yes I think so - that's what mine is. 2) SD card slot yes & plays music from SD card but whether the unit can play video I don't think so. 3) Very little! Just about has room to put an ipod i...

Yes it can. Did it to mine a couple of weeks ago (well I didn't!)

It should be possible.
My works Passat has puddle lights but the mirrors are non-folding.

I have the same car as you. My winter wheels are 17" and standards are 18".
No problems at all - you only need to reset the tyre pressure monitor as the rolling rotation is different.
Other than that, perfect swap.
