Scirocco owner saying hello (updated 25/03/12)
« on: May 22, 2009, 10:34:33 pm »
Hello,

I've been lurking on here and reading plenty of amazing build threads and so thought it was about time I said hello. I'm not a Mk5 owner but have got a Scirocco so still part of the VW family. I have to say this is a fantastic forum - seems to be full of really good info and none of the bitching you seem to get on some sites. Anyway, few picies of my 'Rocco to make my intro complete:-

Looks spot on. Is it the diesel or the 1.4 TSI?

If you have to ask why, you'll never understand.

Thanks to everyone for the welcomes!

Loving the Rocco's more each day, welcome and do you have any plans for it?  :drinking:

I have a few plans but they've had to be shelved as I recently split with my misses and so all funds have had to be re-diverted :sad:

Luke

It's the 1.4.

Welcome to the forum    :happy2: How come you went for candy and not Blue Deacon.  :signIWS:

Always had a thing for white cars and I think that the white is the BEST colour on the 'Rocco for showing off it's shape.

Hello and Welcome Deacon  :happy2:

I was chatting to a fellow white Rocco 1.4TSI owner yesterday who had just had it remapped to 219bhp (from a 1.4  :surprised:) Understandibly he was a very happy man  :driver:

Who was it mapped by do you know? I'd be very tempted but a bit worried about the longevity of the car boosted to that amount?
