(1) The Scirocco has a backside like that of an overdressed Victorian woman.
(2) It has the worst forward visibility of any car due to the exceedingly thick 'A' pillars.
(3) It is really dingy in the back.
(4) The rear passengers have to crouch like hunchbacks.
(5) The 'R' version has an unsightly clip-on sill.
(6) It has very little interior storage space.
(7) Its dashboard does not look fresh (from the Eos).
(8) It has small boot space and a big arse!
(9) It is noisier than a Golf.
(10) Its rear visibility is very poor so can be difficult to park.
(11) Door mirrors very small and not very helpful.
(12) It is made in a PIGS country and not in Germany, hence quality is not quite as good.
(13) It is a good second car.

The list goes on and on ........

Stop comparing chalk and cheese.

PS: p3asa: I have added another two just for you!

Stop stalking me, you monster. :huh:
I have never slagged James. I find him extremely interesting and miss him terribly at present.
I have edited this post just to improve the syntax. I had a problem with the smiley's appearing when unwanted. The 11 points have remained the same. :tongue:

I'd agree on the best colours being blue or white. I'd still pick the Golf though. If the OP's mate does get a Scirocco though, it needs to be this one:



I'd go along with that, that's a good looking motor.
However, after considering your friends predicament for not very long if the truth be told, leave it to him, he seems more than qualified to make his own mind up.

BTW, where is a 'PIGS' country?
