Scirocco R available now!

**octagon** · 24-12-2011, 12:36 AM

I just sold my mkv gti and am waiting on delivery of my rising blue dsg scirocco. The dealer told me that mine is due early jan which sounds sooner than the others here but then again i have had my name down since may so i expect that mine would be one of the first to arrive. Ive never seen a scirocco before and the dealer has yet to receive their demo so i cant wait to collect mine. From the pics i've seen it should be great.

You will find that despite it landing early in January they will not be allowed to deliver it to you until the Official release day.. bummer I know.
You should get your VIN number from your Stealer and go to https://att.2wglobal.com/gstattweb/o...uickSearchPage enter your VIN in the Cargo ID and it will tell you all about the Ship, due date etc.

It's on Figaro due Port Kembla 10 Jan (was originally 4th then 7th so we'll see!) Dealer reckons I'll have it late jan but early feb seems most likely with official launch etc. keen to hear feedback from extended test drives

How did you go with your GTI sale? Resale ok? About to put my my09 mkv GTI on the market and not really sure what to expect

Not sure how it relates but my Stealer just traded a Grey R32 that was nice but certainly not pristine for Mid $30K. Not sure what they traded it on or how many Km it had on it...

I am going to put my Mondeo XR5 on the market soon.. there are no 2008 models advertised online at all in NSW at present... not sure if that is good or bad

If anyone is interested, there is a Rising Blue Scirocco R at Kloster VW in Newcastle. I just had a look at it this morning - lovely looking car. If your interested, give them a call and ask for Terry Knight - he was my salesman and he is a top bloke.

Had a brief test drive of a Scirocco R DSG yesterday.

You guys won't be disappointed.

The ship carrying my Scirocco is back in range and heading for Port Elizabeth.

Ask your Dealer for the info... if they are being honest with you and you have signed on the dotted line they will hand all the info over... but even if it is in the Country now you won't be able to take delivery until it is Officially released for Sale... most likely in Feb.
