    Talking New Scirocco R coming shortly!

    Hi Guys,

    I'm new to the VW world and have just put down a deposit on a dealer demo, a Black Manual Scirocco R!

    Its pending sale of my current car (2003 Honda Integra Type R Turbo'd) so I can't wait to sell it and get into my new sexy beast! is it bad i've already started looking into the stage 1 tunes before I own my car?

    From Perth Originally, but currently living and working in Adelaide, hope to come down to some meets once i've got my VW.

    Alex.

    I drove the Scirocco R at the VW driver education day and was very impressed with the performance and handling
    There's no need to modify it at all - the shocks, roll bar and power are all excellent, as is the stability control

    The only thing I would do is put dynamat in the boot for the benefit of rear passengers
    There is a terrible ressonance from the muffler which is not noticed from the front seats

    I believe it's the same story in the rear seats of the Golf R

    That's most likely the one, i went there last Saturday for a test drive and ended up putting a deposit on the demo.

    Thanks for the welcomes guys, decided to ship my DC5R back to Perth to sell due to licensing/mods issues.
