Mark_H 0 Posted May 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 Especially when you compare it to my current Focus Est.....I would like the GT 140 Diesel.....so far it's quite nice although you can't see much out of the rear window and it's quite noisy inside.....More miles tomorrow and Sunday will help me decide........

Bigjobbo 0 Posted May 7, 2010 Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 The Scirocco R is a bit of monster, spins the front wheel's in the dry in 2nd. Chassis is spot on with the sport button on. I would have the TSI on 18's in white, they look the dog's danglies. Link to post Share on other sites
goonersteve 0 Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 Not been in one yet, so can't comment on the ride or how they drive, but I do love the look. Link to post Share on other sites
Mark_H 0 Posted May 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 I must admit after some initial concerns it's grown on me. Just trying to work out what I can get and what options I can stretch to.......found out something quite strange from the lease company today, apparently, they load the rental premiums for White cars and they do not look good after three years and are worth less.......So, it's cheaper to get a rising blue car (vw option of £430) than a White one (No cost VW option).....as the White one has a lower value after 3 years.......

Mark_H 0 Posted May 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 Just priced up a 5 Door GT Golf and it's about the same money with the same options added.....quite surprised about that.......... Link to post Share on other sites
rodney 17 Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 I had a go for a while... as a company car is back end sucks... boot the size of my 33cl bottle of beer and the rear view does become an issue...I gave up using the rear view mirrror...That said I would love to make one and drop the RSTT running gear and engine in it... LOL and the brown leather really suits it..I thought the GTD had 170BHP??? Link to post Share on other sites
Mark_H 0 Posted May 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 Hi, Yes I know what you mean about the rear view mirror and boot......They do a 140 and 170 BHP versions with or without the DSG gearbox. I'm after the 140 has it has a lower CO2 so it's cheaper on the "tax"..... Link to post Share on other sites
