Is there going to be a Scirocco replacement?

[Billc]

Tony,

You and I seem to be in the same boat! I really don't know what to do either. Diesel is a complete no-no on the low miles I do and the GTS doesn't ring my bell either. I think I'll probably end up with an R because there just isn't anything else on the market that comes close to the Scirocco. On my low mileage (3,000-ish per year) the MPG isn't really going to hurt that much and the real world numbers aren't actually much worse than my TSi.

Would love an R but my mileage is getting on for 15k / year, I thoufght about running it into the ground but then the differential in years to come to buy new or nearly new will be too high, I don't need the power of the R as I also have an Elise for weekends/track but the I don't want to spend a load of ££££ pon a TSI (180bhp) and feel that is is a down grade on what I had.
I think I will have to give the diesel a test drive just to see what it is like.

I love my TDI 140, but that's just me. but I am doing more miles than you between 300-600 a week, my 60 plate has about 85k on it, hasn't had the NOX updated and achieves around 50mpg consistently only thing for me would be more power really but i know I can get that easy with a re-map

I was hoping a new Scirocco was in the pipleline, but it looks like the AutoEuropa plant in Portugal is going to start producing the T-Roc instead:

Which is actually quite interesting. I like the idea of a coupe with increased ground clearance. Especially if it's closer in size to the Scirocco rather than an Evoque.

That's howling

Bolk ! I'll never be buying one of those that's for sure !

Looks honking.

Well, I drove a BMW M240i and have decided to buy one, get it next Friday from dealer stock.
I couldn't sink a load of money into another Scirocco as I've had 2,of the MK 3 and I know if I bought one that after an hour it would feel similar to the others so I've bitten the bullet and will be leaving VW.

It's a pity but VW haven't anything in their line up that really appeals, even a Scirocco R wouldn't do it for me, just a bit quicker version of the 2ltr TSI I already have, same seats, dash etc.
The M240i has some very, very serious muscle, unbelievable amount of smooth power and hopefully one day VW will bring out another coupe.

The end of the Scirocco history for now...

I imagine there will be extra kit added to the last models to tempt folk.

[Grande]

Well, the R version is gone from the German Konfigurator. Is it gone for good? Sport, GTS and "SOUND" are still available.

[Dazarooni]

I see the RRP has dropped on all Scirocco models...
