Sure they will bring out a HOT version maybe with an R32 lump??  :smiley:

....The "R32 lump" is over, finished, not going to be continued - It's general knowledge.

Really I never knew that. Maybe they will bring out a new turbo'd motor to compete with the new RS and Astra VXR etc?  :cool:

....It would be so easy and logical wouldn't it, but this is VW we are talking about and they don't seem to follow what enthusiasts want. Wagen Of The People and all that.

The engine in the new S3 would be even better.

It's all about fuel economy and emissions nowadays.

I thought it was going to be the r36 lump put in it? I even asked at VW and yes they know nothing really, but he said he reckons 1 year and they'll have a real hot hatch version.

I think it's more likely to get the uprated 4 pot turbo from the S3 and 4WD ala the aledged new .:R version of the MKVI. I don't think we'll see a six pot Rocco in any flavour at all.

....I saw your pics comparing your Rrado with the new Rocco, Nick, and the thought now comes to my mind: What if VW were to produce a new Corrado?

I also wonder how quickly the aftermarket manufacturers will start offering mods for the new Rocco.

Well the Rado was supposed to replace the the MKII Scirocco but they actually continued sid eby side from 88 till 92. I'm not sure even VW would be mad enough to produce 2 "Coupes" at the same time again.
