ellis Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Now, the Scirocco is a fine looking car in my opinion but is is just a Golf in a Ra-Ra skirt? Autovogue have got this R8 wannabe for sale which I quite like! http://img22.imageshack.us/img22/125/scirroco.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt H Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Hot or lukewarm to the touch?! Hot at the front, cold at the back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruggs Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 I was going to buy one of these but as soon as the salesmen said yeah they are working on a type R edition I stopped. They are about to announce the R20T version at le mans. This will have a 2.0L Turbo'd engine rather than a V lump. It is to have 270bhp and is the new golf engine not the older one in the current scirocco. They havent released if FWD or 4WD but they think it is going to be the 4Motion system. I am waiting until this one is released. Plus it will come with more aggresive styling as was seen on the competition Scirocco they raced at nurburgring last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexJames Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Pretty but in my experience the people that drive em near me are freakin slow and just get in the way... I usually wave at them as I over take.... closely followed by the milkman... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris2o2 Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 All show no go , Gruggs that does sound a bit more like it though . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruggs Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 exactly. I drove the current one and while its a nice car with reasonable poke its amazing how used to the power of our cars you get. Was a little bored. This car should have had more than 200bhp from the start if its to be a real hot hatch. At least with 270bhp its getting there and can compete with the VXR, R26 and the mazda 3 mps which i was surprised to see had the most BHP of all hot hatches.

Pete Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 It resembles a jelly mould. Very strange looking car. I saw one in the flesh and quite liked it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveR Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 It's a good looking car with the right bodykit on it - there are already some pretty decent examples cropping up in magazines, etc. I wouldn't necessarily want to OWN one though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz6002 Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 The R20T is set to be a very good car. Just wait until those tuners get their hands on it. I had a good look round a racecar version last year and I liked what I saw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
