THE ò€™Roc just got harder! The Scirocco R is the fastest, most aggressive version of the Golf-based coupé yet, and Auto Express has been granted an exclusive audience with it ò€“ giving us the chance to bag these first official images.
The newcomer boasts...
The newcomer boasts a 110bhp 1.6-litre 16v engine, plus a bodykit to match. There"s a redesigned nose with a deeper bumper, wider air intake and new foglight surrounds. The car also has side skirts, flared wheelarches, body-coloured rubbing strips and 16-inch "Leopard" alloys.
At the rear, a large bumper and chrome tailpipe complete the new look. Inside, there"s a leather steering wheel and gearshifter, sports seats and dark grey upholstery.
The VTR can sprint from 0-60mph in less than 10 seconds, yet returns 44mpg economy. Air-conditioning, variable power-steering and a CD player with wheel-mounted control buttons are all fitted as standard. Four airbags, plus ABS with electronic braking assistance, are also included, while traction control is available as an option. The car costs í‚á£12,545, but models ordered by 31 January and registered before April qualify for í‚á£2,000 cashback.
