Scirocco Central

Everytime I show it to family and friends! They all seem to love it!

Sweet baby Jesus and the orphans! Its quality! :D It gets so many looks, the last guy looked all over the car and double checked the bonnet for the badge to find out the make. Very much the same initial impressions as many others. the car is incredible. DSG Gearbox is an engineering marvel. Dynaudio...

I know what you mean about the initial surprise but I think that because I was messed about so much I just wanted to make sure it was real and actually there on the compound! I got to make sure they were installing the sills and pedals too so its all good. My fiancee thinks we're just going down to ...

Been to the dealers today, they were in the process of applying the life shine and she looks Fecking Fan bloomin' tastic!!!!!!!! Picking the car up tomorrow and I just can't wait. It's been a hell of a long time in coming but I can tell you that the excitement tonight has made it completely worth wh...

Been driving my courtesy Roc now for 4 days which does not have parking sensors and it has been going through my head "Thank God I ordered parking sensors!!!"

Apart from that I am loving it - Belter of a car! Hopefully have my baby next week - still keeping those fingers crossed!

Evening boys, back from the dealers, they'll match the internet policy, a drop of around 220 quid! So cheers for the advice! Got my courtesy Roc too, here until I get delivery of my lovely new motor - should be next week! Fingers crossed! Anyway, going out for a meal tonight and I've volunteered to ...

Cheers for that amigo, been on't t'internet and armed myself with many quotes at half of the price of the dealers. Going in tomorrow to pick up the courtesy roc and will have the discussion then. I appreciate your speedy reply le-savage and I'll let you know how I get on.

Quick question folks, by the sounds of it the "deal" i got on my GAP insurance was crap. Do you think I can amend/get the dealer to make a bet offer on the insurance even though I have already paid a deposit and signed on the dotted line - which included the quote for the GAP insurance? I ...

Mine was built on 9/3/09 and I'm still waiting for it! Should be arriving this week though as it's in transit at the moment :clap: You're in the same boat as me mate, no pun intended! Spoken to my dealer today and they still haven't taken delivery of the car. (Even though he thought it would be the...

You can put 4 year olds in the boot?

Think i read somewhere that they are transported from Portugal to Germany and then shipped into Grimsby. Think thats where the 2 weeks are coming in to play. The wait is most certainly a ball ache!!! But by all accounts completely worth it by the sound of things!

I've still got another few weeks from delivery but I phoned the dealer and made sure that both leads would be with the car on pick up. He said they are keeping some spares in stock to supply with the new cars - I think I believe him! I'm sure the current owners will be able to give some more hints a...

Yeah, good work mate. Just shows you that if you don't ask, you don't get. Had more problems with the my own dealer rather than VW even though my delay should fall around about the 4.5 month mark (Provided the car gets delivered when expected!) Anyway, well done amigo!

Living in fareham, working in Swanwick - hopefully will have my Black 09 plate by the end of the Month! I know that Bagwafu comes up this way to visit now and again. I've only ever seen a Silver one (Near Southampton) and a White car, on its way out of Fareham on the Avenue (Think it may have been t...

Last stage i was told from the VW dialogue system was of a confirmed build date of 9th of March. Got a call today saying it has been updated as "Awaiting Shipping". Dealer expects the car to be with me by last week in March/First week in april. I ordered on 25th November and didnt change m...

"AWAITING SHIPPING" - confirmed today by the dealer - The end is in sight!! I'm not counting my chickens though, knowing my luck the bloody ship will sink somewhere in the channel.

Anyway, can't wait!!

Cheers for that mate, must be one I missed

Whats the opinion of you gents on the "to run in or not to run in" debate? Heard various opinions like why run it in when its already ran in on a bench but not sure whether I would just play safe and go for the usual 1000 mile easy ride? What do you think?

Are you farting every time you go over a pot hole or something?

Good choice amigo
