I finally picked up my rocco yesterday after four months of waiting! :D

Have driven him a litte bit, and are very satisfied so far. Both headlights and taillights get a bit of condensation inside them, but that's normal as I understand..

I took some pics in a hurry while still light outside. Car became dirty after about 5 mins of driving in this weather, so it'll have to be "dirty"-pics :)

Do like the r-line pack, great looking car kenti :thumbup: . Are the rims 18" or 17"?

Thanks, raphael!

Rims are 18" (235/40 R18) "Mallory", which are the R-Line rims.

Originally the Mallorys are delievered with summer tyres, but my dealer swapped the rubber to winther before delivery. So I'm actually without summer wheels at the moment, but have been looking at some 19" RS6 style rims (Talladega is also an option if they're possible to find...).

Nice car....great colour choice ;)

Quite like the R-Line body kit you have there, very subtle changes from standard but make it look a little more aggressive, shame we dont have the R-Line option in the UK :thumbdown:

Have been driving around a bit today. It's hard to be gentle on the gas the first 1500 km, but that's the "backside" of buing new I guess. For now I'm driving him as a baby :) Was also a little sceptical to the dimensions on my winther tyres, but the grip is very good even with all this ice and snow.

Have also been testing out the bluetooth phone prep, and it works great out of the box. Just turn on bluetooth on the iPhone, and everything works like a charm.

I'm also loving the "hill hold" function, small things that makes the driving even more convenient.

Another thing that's faaaar better with this petrol engine is that it doesn't take ages to warm up, compared to the diesels (Golf mk6 and touran that is, haven't tried the Scirocco diesel).

I'm also very glad I chose the electical folding mirrors. My garage suddently felt a bit slimmer when parking driving in the rocco compared to the lady's little Polo :)

I still have a lot of investigation to do, so have taken in all the manuals to read now. As many others I have not gotten the iPhone adapter cable to the Media-In, even though this cable was specified in the list from the dealer. The R-Line pack also contaion carpet mats, but they chose to put in rubber mats instead for some reason. So I will contact my dealer about this next week.

Kenti.
chrome exhaust, is it part of the R-Line?
No, it's not (all though it should have been I think!). The chrome exhaust on my rooco are originals from VW that's fitted by the dealer before delivery. Cost me £180, but it's probably cheaper in the UK.

Nice car , why we dont get the R line in UK ?
Thanks, mate.
Beats me why you guys don't have the R-line in the UK! The R-line pack really do augment the look of the Scirocco, IMHO!
