Thoughts about the new car..

Post by gustavsthlm »

Hi!

I am planning on purchasing a used or new Scirocco someday next year perhaps. I am wondering some things ... perhaps you could give me some insights.

The car config I am looking at at the moment is:
the Viper green Scirocco Sport
manual Diesel
Panorama roof
Dynaudio sound

It will cost about 320 000 Swedish krownes new. (thats about 31 700 British pounds)

Thats no premium or sports package.

1. How do you feel about this config? What would you say is the biggest lost in this config? (No premium package et c..)
2. If there were to be a facelift before i place an order, how would that effect the cost?
3. If i see a nice used Scirocco, what is the most important thing to check before you buy it?

Strange, i put the same config on the volkswagen.de site, that showed 270 222 Swedish krownes. I guess its a lot more expensive in Sweden for some reason... :(
O well, what can you do..

It comes down to what you want really. but Parking sensors is a very good option. What do you get as standard over in Sweden? Is it a the new 177 bhp diesel ?
