Re: Scirocco R - pre-purchase check

If your looking at facelift models Ive had basically no problems. A fogged up indicator replaced under ...

Re: How can I know if my car has launch ctrl?

Driving without ESP will give you a better feel of what the car can do and its limits. Day to day I keep it on in my R but when going for a hard drive it has to go off! Makes everything even more fun.

Re: Mirror adjustment buggered?

Cheers :yes:

I had them independent previously but had one of my indicators replaced under warranty due to water getting in and buggering it. They must have reset the MFD when that was done!

Re: Facelift R No Plate

Looking to get a new plate made for the Roc. Looking for something slightly smaller so I don't have the overhang on my bumper. Anyone got a size handy for this? Thanks! 520mm x 78mm means it fills the gap perfectly length ways and does not hang over. You can get customs sizes made on fancy plates f...

Re: Facelift R No Plate

I'm unfortunately away from home for another couple of weeks and was looking to try and have one ordered before I get back. Cant get anyone (that I trust enough to get it right) to measure the correct place on the bumper for me. Hopefully someone has some numbers handy though!

Re: Facelift R Roof bars

Apologies for the late reply. I was worried OEM might be the only option as I still have a set of footpace/aero bars from my previous car which would have looked good on the rocco as well as being cheaper. Ill keep a look out for any sets on eBay. is there a specific part no? forgot to ask when I wa...

Had my R for 2 weeks today and my total average has been 26mpg. Bear in mind that is changing up gears later in the rev range and sitting in 3rd around some twisty scottish roads for half the miles I've done.

Facelift R Roof bars

Ola,

took delivery of my brand new Pure white R 2 weeks ago and have begun my search for a set of roof bars for the upcoming winter sports season, unfortunately I cant find anything at all. Any suggestions of what anyone is using?
