General Comments:

Modern Scirocco is a very nice car if you want a fun run about.

My white 2011 car still looks the part in my opinion. Exterior is sleek and the interior is functional. Very comfortable.

Very good to drive, the 1.4 turbo charged petrol engine will not win any races, but it is more than adequate for everyday driving. I drive fast when I feel like it and still average 37 mpg, which I think is OK for petrol. You can get 40 mpg from it but you'd have to cruise very slowly. Try the diesels if you need more grunt and mpg.

Can be expensive to buy initially, but general running costs such as servicing and repair are OK. Tax and insurance a little pricey for what it is I think. It's a nice car, but not as premium as VW or your insurance company would have you believe!

Has a certain maturity about it for a modern sporty coupe, but watch out for abused examples on the used market, it is a popular car with young boy racers.
