I don't know... don't like the bonnet and as its already running 265bhp in standard form I am assuming a Stage 2 remap will take it to around 350-370bhp - a bit too much for a FWD car. I don't get what this offers above the Ed30 except that its not a Golf. If it was 4WD on the other hand like the R-GTI is rumoured to be.. well thats a completely different matter  :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool:

If it is 4WD I still wouldn't have it as it basically would be heralding the imminent launch of a GTI-R :wink:

the only thing wrong with it is the rear wing. I feel it's too OTT. Apart from that the rest is very nice. I like the fussy rear.

Looks nice that....but really hope its gonna be FWD.  It would be stupid for it not to be.

£26k though  :shocked:  By the time you've added extras etc you'll be looking at nearly £30k. Thats a lot of money imo....

sh!tting hell, thats incredible! Think i'll start saving now then!

Looks amazing!

Going to start saving hard over the next 12 months!

I've still got my R32 MkiV and i've always wanted another 4wd car. Not really fancy another V6 even with the massive price cut on the MKV r32.

This would be spot on IF 4wd, if not i'll wait for the R20.

then how the hell do they expect it to reach 100 in 5.5?  :huh:
Looks fantastic this Scirocco, with its big breaks, big beautiful wheels, sport suspension...
The rear diffuzorrr is too rice, as well as that ridiculous wing.
But if it is FWD again, I'll stop looking forward to it.
