CarMad Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Not me but it does look good, I think its a grower for me, seems to get better with every picture I see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRobin Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 My father had a white Mk2 GTI many moons ago and then a red Scirocco followed by another red Scirocco and then a red Golf until he was 90yo!! All were left-hookers as he mostly lived abroad. But I won't be following that family tradition by ordering a Scirocco - It's not practical enough for my needs but I hope to test drive one.

Atlantis Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 I surely won't be the first, but I will probably be ordering one later in the year when my company car lease ends. I want to test drive first before committing though. Would go for the following spec: 2.0 TSI 200bhp Manual Candy White Truffle Vienna Leather Panoramic Sunroof Bi-Xenons Dynaudio Speakers DAB Rear Parking Sensors Flat Tyre Indicator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mook Posted June 23, 2008 Report Share Posted June 23, 2008 I'm ordering one this week now that the dealers have got their order books open. I'm really sold on white with tan leather, but I'm still wanting to see on in more detailed dark grey metallic or blue metallic. Not too fussed about the extras, as long as I get satnav, but definitely don't want a sunroof (don't like them) or flat tyre indicator - I can tell when I've got one of those...

shao_khan Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 the panoramic roof is fab The race cars in the blue look good, I think I'd probably go for Red though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TP27 Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 the panoramic roof is fab Just ordered one for delivery in October. Panoramic roof included ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLOCK Posted June 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 (edited) Well ive just come back from the dealers with a recipt for an order for a new scirocco, ive ordered.... candy white (again). Manual. Truffle leather. bi-xenons. dynaudio pack. rear parking sensors. mats? Folding mirrors. err i think that was all! Anyhow hes not giving any delivery dates away but no earlier than september, also he's said i can chop and change things for a few weeks untill it goes to confirmed for production. Plus if i dont like it when it turns up i can just leave it, this was the best he could offer as they dont know what half the options are or colours but are expecting people to order. The other option i was looking at was the red with just the black cloth but its hard to decide when you aint seen stuff in the flesh.

TP27 Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 What spec did you go for? and is it to replace the rs4? Fully loaded in Rising Blue metallic with Black Vienna leather. It's a replacement for MrsTP's Eos and it should be a lot of fun. Waiting for a build date which should be confirmed at the beginning of July.

TP27 Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 Should also add that I've asked for clarification on Bluetooth installation, whether any alternative alloys will be available (as we're not too keen on the Interlagos alloys) and I've queried if we can add iPod in place of the CD player.

The new VW "media interface" is standard equipment so you can attach your iPod to this I believe. The only other large alloys I've seen are the 19" Helios ones which appear to be dealer-fit only (i.e. pricey) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TP27 Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 The new VW "media interface" is standard equipment so you can attach your iPod to this I believe. And does this Head-Unit allow you to select iPod files, as you can with the MMI in the Audi ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlantis Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 And does this Head-Unit allow you to select iPod files, as you can with the MMI in the Audi ? I hope so. I think VW fit a version of it in the Tiguan which displays tracks on the head unit.

shao_khan Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 IF its the unit I had in my Tiguan loaner its a good bit of kit, track names and everything If I had to have dealer alloys, I'd have the 5 spoke dealerfit A3 alloys (Should be a fit for for the Sciroccco - and look good on it.

CarMad Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 Some great specs, this is looking like a great motor, can't wait to see some on the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TP27 Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 Any contract hire rates yet? Not as yet - indeed, 1 July 2008 will be the "formal" date for the launch (of the Scirocco model with the configurator from VW on-line) and I suspect "Solutions" and contract hire quotes will follow from then. The Scirocco will take thousands of sales from the up and coming MkVI Golf range and watch the MkV GTi values fall now too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
