Looks boring IMO  :cry: - Especially with the loss of the IROC grill - another missed opertunity - the fact that the engines are going to be lesser than the Golf is adding insult to injury.
For my next car i will be going else where unless VW can pull their fingers oot their...........

Just seen a video from the show of a red pearl Scirocco. It looked very nice.

http://motoring.sky.com/news_features/geneva--video-highlights.aspx

I like the red one.  The one in Auto Express is a white one and imo does not look that good.  A Golf GTI in white looks much better.  Auto Express says that it will be released with the 2.0 TFSI engine but say a 272bhp version is in the works as well as an R version.

It's a shame I will never own one now that I have a toddler.

Bloody Sky site doesn't support Macs, so I can't see anything on that link. I really wanted to see a red one!

I don't recall vw_sales ever saying which dealership he is from, Alan.

....A thousand thanks, orca!! :smiley:

I love it in red of course!! I could even transfer my VW05 RED plate! It looks like a metallic red  :cool:

Oh dear! I'm gonna be looking for as many reasons as I can NOT to want this car! I really need 5 doors, don't I! And the load capacity isn't big enough, is it! How I wish it was much more expensive so I couldn't justify it! I'm sure it wouldn't fit into my tiny garage - The GTI only just fits.

My father had a Mk2 GTI when he was about my age and then had 2 Scirocco's following and then a standard Mk4 Golf before he stopped driving at 90yo. His GTI was white and Sciroccos were red. Almost a family tradition.
