It was intended to revitalize the segment of affordable sports coupés, which had peaked in the 90s, and correspondingly polish up the staid, conservative image of the Volkswagen brand. the Sirocco However, the third generation, which was based on the Golf VI, failed miserably and became one of the biggest flops in recent VW history. By then, two-door coupes had fallen out of favor due to their impractical concept, and the SUV wave was unstoppable and swept the automotive world like a tsunami. However, VW sold a few copies of the last Scirocco, and we would like to introduce you to one of them today, which is making the streets unsafe in Spain.

Snow White Lowflyer!

The Scirocco is something special, because not only its functional, clean design is convincing, but also the ingredients, which are seasoned harmoniously to conjure up a delicious tuning menu. Let's start with Airride chassis from Air Lift, which adds two Viair compressors 444cc neatly and neatly placed in the boot. The next ingredient are the almost oversized for Scirocco standards 20-inch alloy wheels, which are polished and high-sheen and were originally installed on a Mercedes ML.

The Rims have a classic star design that comes up with a five-twin-spoke look and know how to score with their shiny silver finish. Tires in the format 225/30 R20 were mounted on the rounds. A brake on the front axle ensures safe deceleration in all driving situations Custom sports brake system with brake calipers from an Audi RS6, which comes up with huge perforated and slotted brake discs with a diameter of 365 millimeters. At the rear, on the other hand, perforated brake discs are used, as well as brake calipers from the Scirocco R.

On the cleaned rear was also a powerful diffuser attached which of a Sports exhaust system is flanked by Akrapovic, which not only draws attention to itself visually with four thick tailpipes.

The interior is elegant!

No trace of riot tuning can be seen in the interior, which with sports seats comes up, which are covered with saddle brown leather. The entire cockpit remained except for those installed later 7 inch monitor Series, whereby all comfort was retained. Just a retrofitted one Sports pedals in aluminum look testifies to the increased dynamics of the Scirocco.

Something has changed not only visually with the snow-white sports coupe. thanks one ECU remappings, better known under the term Chiptuning, which was carried out by the TLR company from the suburbs of Madrid, the power was increased from the original 140 hp 185 little horse raised. Unfortunately, we don't know anything about the increase in torque, but it should be similarly strong. Thus, the once somewhat weak-breasted VW is still a small speedster that keeps what its sporty look promises.
