Scirocco Central

Traded in for £13750. Saw it on sale later for £17,999!

Pity you weren't looking when I traded in mine just before lockdown. It only had 23,000 on the clock - c'est la vie.

Just curious why are the panoramic roofs so rare? Are they bad or something? Probably not worth the original option price for what is just a tilting roof I guess - approx £1500 when new. I very rarely used mine and in fact the sunblind remained closed for most of its life as with it open the car wo...

If you don’t want a fine don’t do the crime!

Yeah thanks dude. Seems like mostly American posters so probably won't be delving too much into that.

Sold it! BD64KPK Time for a change so after just shy of 5 years ownership, I’ve traded in my beloved Roc R at Lancaster BMW in Milton Keynes for an X2 M Sport. If anyone wants a high specced R then you won’t go far wrong with this, one of the early facelift models from late 2014. I bought it as a 6-...

The boot doesn’t pop but unlocks. You have to press the VW badge to actually open it.

Looks nice. Salsa Red. Watch out for rear bumper colour fading over time. Became quite noticeable from certain angles on my first Roc. So much so it bugged me to change to a metallic colour.

As Phil says unfortunately that’s a feature. I’ve scratched mine just putting a laptop case behind the seat!

Bluetooth wasn’t standard on the early models. Probably not fitted in your car.

Bog standard RNS510 as built. Looking at upgrading the Maps though. Any advice appreciated.

Technically it’s the DVLA. You’ve bought the right to display it on your car. Assuming you’re the registered keeper of the car with the new plate, you’ll then have the right to transfer or retain the plate in future.

As the title says, after two weeks holiday and my R being parked at Manchester Airport T1/T3 mid-stay car park, I returned to the car in the early hours of Sunday morning to find the battery completely flat. Had to open the drivers door with the key to get access and then realised I couldn't open th...

So after collecting the car on Saturday and having the weekend to get to know it all i can say is just WOW! I just love the smooth power delivery. For some unknown reason i have come across multiple Golf R this weekend (Coincidence) and i must say the Rocco is the must best looking one! I can feel ...

Somthing I've never had on any other car, wondering if anyone else has had this: I have a manual gearbox, and always leave it parked in neutral. I sometimes come back to it to find it in third gear. This happens even when it is parked perfectly level in my garage. It has never caused a problem as I...
