Scirocco fwends!!!

Yours is lovely  :love: :love:

I like the dash top gauges... reckon that could be retrofitted on a Mk5/Mk6 style...  :party: :party:

I saw this on the Scirocco forum, it looks great.

Also another thumbs up for the dash gauges!

Great looking and very well spec'd Scirocco. I'd get a RNS-510 to level the HU to the rest of your car. :wink:

Yeah. I was looking into this. I currently have DAB and Bluetooth as well as Nav with the RNS315, so it would take some costs to get an RNS510 up to the same spec with a factory too. Something for the future.

Looks classy Luke, great colour.

What made you choose the 3DSM's out of interest? I know they're a popular wheel out there. Suit the Rocco well.

Finding it good to drive and fair to run? I get on very well with my CR170 all told.

Seen other Roccos with the wheels fitted and think it really suits them. A classic mesh design with lovely concave.

The engine hasn't even done 1k miles yet. So fuel consumption is still pretty poor. Hoping it loosens up a fair bit. Most I've managed is 52mpg on a 120mile run.

If you can sell your RNS-315 DAB for a fair price you can recover a good chunk of the investment but it's understandable that you leave it for later. :smiley:

The car looks great Deako.....I went on a 280 trip yesterday and managed 54mpg but I stuck at 75mph for most of it. Mine is the "old" 170CR (now 200) so your newer engine should be much better when it's run in!!

Thanks again. Took it out for a nice drive today down to the Morgan Factory for a tour with the Auto Adrenalin guys. It's a great package.

Forgot to mention the R Line also has a soundaktor so doesn't sound like a diesel at all too. :happy2:

Took delivery of the TTRS calipers and promptly sent them back for a refund. Not impressed with the refurb.

Also took delivery of this brand new from VW.

Should look nice with a new BCS system.
