The scirocco in black looks pretty nice (well this one does  :tongue: )



            ^^^^^^^^  Me wanty nowee ^^^^^^^ can i have a 2.0 R please :drool:

Things is, when it looks like that I would have one in a heart beat, but until wheels like that and subtle body kits like that are available, ill be staying well clear! When they decide to pull their finger out and give customisation options on the body/wheels/interor its a no go!

lower tax!? same engine? 179 g/km!? woot!
I don't quite understand but if you are saying its the same engine as the current GTI it isn't. Open the bonnet and compare it uses the newer engine like some of the americans are now getting in the gti.

....A friend of mine has a Monaro - The Scirocco won't sound anything like a Monaro!! It won't go anything like a Monaro either!! Another has a supercharged Monaro :shocked:.

That pic of the black 'Rocco shows how much better they look when modified.
