I have an opinion....

Why on earth aren't they putting the 170 CR diesel in it?!?! It's meant to be a performance coupé!?!?!

Crazy.

They will be, theyve also put the CR170 in the new Golf and called it the GTD, so i imagine they will do the same for the 'Roc.

I'd driven the 2.0l petrol and it was great fun.

The diesel isn't really significantly cheaper and yet the petrol is surprisingly economical in terms of co2 and mpg.

Anyone driven the Scirocco tdi 140 yet?

Seems a simliar output to the fabia VRS and similar 0-60 time.

Sick of waiting for the fabia VRS so may get one?

Any opinions?

It costs a good bit more...

I see one nearly every day now (not the same one) and they do look nice till you get to the rear which is well.. very Sir Mix-A-Lot which spoils the whole car.

And yes a sporty-coupe should not sound like a tractor... :D

I've seen a couple.

Don't like it much. Just doesn't work for me. I think I'm the only one.

I like the Golf GTi better.

Seen few on the road and they're gorgeous, very wide body and in desperate need of lowering springs. Cant see the point of a 3 door Golf GTi now.

Not driven one, but I've sat in a silver 2.0TSI...I think it's gorgeous. Also, the interior quality seems absolutely perfect, really nice. Not a lot of rear visibility mind you.

Slightly OT..

But has anyone seen the MK6 Golf with is side lamps/driving lights on?

Don't you think it makes it looks abit cross-eyed?:dopey:

I think the daytime-running lights look dreadful on the Mk6. I've passed a few on sunny days, and the lights are just annoying more than anything else.

Can they be turned off?

I've driven a 140 Jetta which I believe is the same engine. I was very similar in performance to my standard vRS but with a more smooth delivery of the power.

Not much else to say on it was I only had i for a day a while back. Hope this is some help though.
