Scirocco Central

Just curious if anyone has used any of the popular car broker sites to order their Scirocco? I ordered mine via CarWow - got a really good deal from a dealer in Scotland and as I'm within their 100 mile free delivery radius, I went with them.

I called around some of the local VW dealers and they couldn't get anywhere near what I was offered from the CarWow dealer. The dealer seems to have a good reputation too and the salesman I am using has been good so far.

Anyone had any experiences?

Currently waiting on delivery of a car I ordered via orangewheels. Saved 12% on list with options and so far all well and good. The proof is in the pudding as they say so will have to see what happens with delivery and aftercare...

I believe the dealer that supplied your car is my local dealer and have been using for many years. Service is always excellent but I maybe need to do a CarWow quote before I buy next one:-)

Hi bit, has your car been built yet?

I googled their name and quickly gathered that they were reputable and I soon placed my order. So far so good.

Ordered in May and it's being built this week

What car/options have you ordered and have they given you a build week yet?

My build week is this coming week (Monday 14th) I'm very excited!

This is only my second car, I passed my test earlier this year (I'm 35) and currently have a Polo (60 plate in Flash Red). I love the colour and have ordered a 1.4 TSI flash red roc with Interlagos alloys. No other extras. I haven't seen in flash red rocs on the road, but I love the colour on my polo and from all the pictures I've seen on google, it's a great looking colour on the roc and much more vibrant than the old salsa colour.

Are you picking yours up from the dealer or are you getting it delivered?

Used orange wheels as a way to bargain with my local dealer. Went there with a quote and said will you match it. Initially they said yes but it was a 3 month wait for what I wanted. Or they had a stock car coming in with en 1 month . Couldn't wait so had there stock car. Still got the same discount though just minus all the extras I wanted.

Nice.. I think I only ever recall seeing 1 or 2 red Scirocco's they are quite rare And you're right about flash red... more vibrant (but not overly) than Salsa which I thought always looked a little dull. Interlagos will set it off quite nicely as well.

I'm picking the car up from the dealer so I can check it over myself. After that it's straight to the detailer for a clean and 3M/ventureshield application

So we both have the same build weeks?

Will be interesting to see how long they both take to ship and arrive at dealers... I'll be posting regular updates. Bet you're as excited as I am knowing that you're only 3-4 weeks away from getting your hands on your roc?

I used drivethedeal when I bought mine almost a year ago. Absolutely spot on, honest, friendly and helpful service, great discount (better than carwow and orangewheels in this case) and the dealer wasn't too far away from where I live anyway. Would definitely recommend, what's not to like!

It's reassuring to see people having good experiences. These broker websites make it possible to get some awesome deals.

I've used Autobid twice and recently Carwow. I've had really good discounts with both of them. I took delivery of a Scirocco Rline 180TSI the other week and I've been pleased with it. I paid for loads of extras this time. I'm loving the new discover head unit and Xenon lights.
