9 years on, still love the look of this car. The fluro green colour is a bit much even for me (maybe a sensory thing), but I have a 2011 diesel Golf and I’d happily take one of these because my back seats never get used! Melbourne Australia here!
love the looks of this car. It's so aggressive from the front. It's got a low and wide stance. From the front 3/4 view it looks like a sporty coupe because of the wide hips, but it's actually a hot hatch. AMAZING design, wish they sold this in the US
I seriously wish VW would finally make up their mind about bringing the Scirocco to the U.S., because I think this car could bring them back in the spotlight here, and also maybe bring over the Amarok so that they could have a pickup truck to compete against America's pickups.
Neat, I didn't know that.. but I did notice right away on her "fast car reviews" that she confidently pushed the cars, so either she knows what shes doing or is incredibly brave.. thumbs up for a cool factoid mate.
Good Review - classic CarBuyer, not so much fuzz. Only thing about the suspension getting a little to little and too much attention since it had 3 modes. Never mind i really like the Sirocco, it´s a German car with a passionate and sporty design. I would be happy driving one. Cheers
You guys can find the original separate Volkswagen Scirocco review on the channel itself that explains more about it's rear seats and back visibility . I believe it's the same car in terms of size and body so this is an add on to an already existing video . No need to bash them they assume you're already an avid viewer. :)
@carbuyer it would probably be a good idea to put "R" into the title otherwise it will confuse viewers because you already have a scirocco review. Hope this helps.
Hey CarBuyer. I have an idea for you. I'd like to see a video with both Mat and Rebecca, but it wouldn't be a run of the mill review with two reviwers instead of one. I'd love it to be a longer video, and then it would be the very first time both of them come into contact with the car in question - perhaps the car they are reviewing should be a secret, until they are actually next to it. And no sweat if they don't know the figures of the car, put them in the description, that's why it' there :-)
Wheres Matt?Im sorry Rebbeka but in the last videos you forgot about the big bottle test,but really anybody else is nervous because of that but they must only see the normal scirocco and they will understand but please make longer reviews and dont look so excited about a hatch with a big engine
Well, according to the dictionary, a coupe is a "two door, fixed roof car with a sloping rear" - so in this sense the Scirocco does actually fit into that. 3-door hatches (such as the Scirocco's cousin, Golf) do not count as, well, they are 3-door and 5-door? Not to mention they do not have the "sloping roof" part!
I'm sure that he also thinks that it will take sales away from the GTI, but who cares if it does it's more expensive anyway! It's almost guaranteed to outsell the GTI if they would actually bring it to the U.S.... :'(
She's cute, but someone should tell her that it's torque, not horsepower, that results in the 0 - 60 MPH sprint of six seconds. She didn't bother to mention the torque number, but it's horsepower that allows the Scirocco to overtake slower cars.
ppl should really start a petition for this car to come to the US because the Volkswagen USA CEO thinks there is no market for it here and thats why they dont have it here gota show them that you want the car ..
Don't know what you are talking about..I have no weakness to women,I just say that Matt is doing better job than Rebecca in reviewing.And for me,serious cars are those cars which are very popular on the market and everybody wait for new model with great expectations...unlike Dacia Logan for example
@TheMcooper17 That is equipment level on UK spec opel/vauxhall, gtc is sport coupe and it looks similar to astra but body panels doors and so on are different and scirocco is a golf based so it is same...
US really needs this car i love it and would drop 25-28k in cash on this baby it looks amazing kinda makes me want to chop of the roof of my GTI and make it look like that ...

Melbourne Australia here!
I can’t believe I forgot to go to the gym today. That’s 7 years in a row now.
HAHAHAHAHAH for me 6 or 7!!years!!!!
Manchester United 🤣🤣🤣 25 for me 👍

will be mine verrrry soon
Still a beautiful car.
And still a beautiful car
I seriously wish VW would finally make up their mind about bringing the Scirocco to the U.S., because I think this car could bring them back in the spotlight here, and also maybe bring over the Amarok so that they could have a pickup truck to compete against America's pickups.
Rebecca holds a line better than Matt. She nails the car everywhere which makes for good watching!
Lolololololol
This car is the car of my dreams.
I've got a blue one and all I can say is that I love that car! :))
Drove this and was quite impressed. Then I drove the Megane 265 and was blown away. Went with the 265 but the VW was pretty impressive.
bet that Mégane gave you trouble?
Man! This beast would sale like candy in the U.S. so sad we don't have it.
Dubstep in CarBuyer? MADE MY DAY!
No other car she's tested put that smile on her face. Epic Viper Green R.
I missed the review i was too busy looking at becky. She is so pretty. X
Sounds a bit rapey
Sounds manly u luns
Amazing vw scirocco r
Just excellent review by Rebecca; I can't believe I have not seen this one before. it's too bad we don't get the Scirocco in Canada any longer.
Finally, Rebbeca, they gave you toys to play. Good work! :)
"Right up my street" SOUNDS DIRTY!!
Neat, I didn't know that.. but I did notice right away on her "fast car reviews" that she confidently pushed the cars, so either she knows what shes doing or is incredibly brave.. thumbs up for a cool factoid mate.
one of the best looking car on the market
i miss her.
cilvrado don't we all
What happened to her? 🤷♀️
Good Review - classic CarBuyer, not so much fuzz. Only thing about the suspension getting a little to little and too much attention since it had 3 modes. Never mind i really like the Sirocco, it´s a German car with a passionate and sporty design. I would be happy driving one. Cheers
you should show the dashboard, in all of the carbuyer reviews. and thumbs up for longer reviews.
She's amazing! And great review 😍
Iv gotta get myself one of these looks gorgeous I didn't no they were releasing the r version in the sorroco.
VW Scirocco + Dubstep + Rebbeca = Happiness :D
I didn't hear a thing she said.. too busy looking into her eyes!
No Eddy Lam. I had one in the past. :)
Wallie Newen Her eyes captivate you and she would have to spend lifetime just trying to pick you out of a crowd
Incel alert...
it doesn't matter because it has a heart and soul.
WATSON SHOULD REVIEW THESE KIND OF CARS ! When i seen Bentley not reviewed by him i was sad :(
I demand this car be brought to the US!
these reviews need to be at least 5 minutes, I noticed that when they are shorter, I miss obvious things

Does this car build in sat nav, bluetooth and usb?
When is this model coming to the states? And is it offered in manual perhaps? That would be great 🤩
Needs to be in America now!
Rebecca is not bad, but Matt is on another planet.
@carbuyer it would probably be a good idea to put "R" into the title otherwise it will confuse viewers because you already have a scirocco review. Hope this helps.
VW Scirocco + Rebecca = Perfection
I'm still waiting for the new Clio, Fiat 500l, Skoda Octavia...but it's still a good review
Whats more faster for a 1 mile this Volkswagen Scirocco R or the renault megane rs 265 cup?
She could review a rock and still make it amazing!
if you buy a car now will you get 2013 number plate or 62?
Rockin that lime green! :)
I think those are the DRL. Usually fog lights aren´t LED. And are a bit lower
Carbuyer and Dubstep, I'll brb, dying.

Did anyone realise when she was talking about the adaptive suspension and she chose the sport mode the car was not moving the kilometer was at 0
I hate Volkswagen for not bringing this beauty to the States. I refuse to buy anything Audi or VW until they do. Then I'll buy two.
Wheres Matt?Im sorry Rebbeka but in the last videos you forgot about the big bottle test,but really anybody else is nervous because of that but they must only see the normal scirocco and they will understand but please make longer reviews and dont look so excited about a hatch with a big engine
really want a bit longer reviews:)
I actually think quite the opposite. Rebecca is a serious racing driver while Mat seems to be someone who prefers cruising and chilling.
Anyone notice how the dials from 1:57-2:00 the camera shakes as if the cars in motion but the rpm and speedo don't move o.O?
This particular shade of green is called "viper green"
How is the fuel consumption?
You will be lucky to get 25 mpg but still a great car.
is the weather like that in UK right now?
Only three minutes for such a sexy car? No Rebecca! :(
Well, according to the dictionary, a coupe is a "two door, fixed roof car with a sloping rear" - so in this sense the Scirocco does actually fit into that. 3-door hatches (such as the Scirocco's cousin, Golf) do not count as, well, they are 3-door and 5-door? Not to mention they do not have the "sloping roof" part!
Well, I prefer the older 80s shape.
But this newer Scirocco does handle and brake better. Plus the back seat can actually hold people.
This might be pushing it a bit, but I daresay I prefer it to the Golf GTi. Or at least they're tied!
I love the car, the color and of course Rebecca! =)
one of few VW i like
where have you been all this time?
So ..... this is a perfect hatch ????
Cool colour
i think she does those reviews just fine.
To be fair, they have already made a VW Scirocco review before where Matt Watson tells all that.
you should have let the guy make the review since he review'd the normal Scirocco, so he could do a comparison
I'm sure that he also thinks that it will take sales away from the GTI, but who cares if it does it's more expensive anyway! It's almost guaranteed to outsell the GTI if they would actually bring it to the U.S.... :'(
Dear carbuyer, please explain 2 me how is this a coupe..?
great color
She's cute, but someone should tell her that it's torque, not horsepower, that results in the 0 - 60 MPH sprint of six seconds. She didn't bother to mention the torque number, but it's horsepower that allows the Scirocco to overtake slower cars.
Aaaaa they should give Matt to do reviews of these serious cars...
Actually they are, especially some of the TSI engines which drink oil. I speak from experience.
This car, GT86 or RCZ ?
ppl should really start a petition for this car to come to the US because the Volkswagen USA CEO thinks there is no market for it here and thats why they dont have it here gota show them that you want the car ..
AWESOME!
Don't know what you are talking about..I have no weakness to women,I just say that Matt is doing better job than Rebecca in reviewing.And for me,serious cars are those cars which are very popular on the market and everybody wait for new model with great expectations...unlike Dacia Logan for example
Looks sooo nice!
Same price? Dunno about where you're from, but here the Scirocco is around $50k, and the 135 is more like $80k.
This car is the hottest car ever made, seriously. It's naturally sexy. They should bring it to the U.S.
@TheMcooper17 That is equipment level on UK spec opel/vauxhall, gtc is sport coupe and it looks similar to astra but body panels doors and so on are different and scirocco is a golf based so it is same...
Spirited driving down country roads - yea right love. Try going over 30mph if you dare in your type R.
whens mat coming back ?
WOW what a lovely ride, cars not bad either
Why green?
Where is matt?
how tall is she again? i seem to have forgotten since her last video...
Why it's not available in the U.S? :[
I didn't know you had internet in the medieval age.
well i just want to share my opinion and experience, people must think twice with this car.
US really needs this car i love it and would drop 25-28k in cash on this baby it looks amazing kinda makes me want to chop of the roof of my GTI and make it look like that ...
we need this in US
The next scirocco is coming to the US
Respectable 33 MPG? You've got to be kidding me! A heavy Mercedes CLS63, with it's 5.5 twin turbo V8 will get 28.5 MPG!
All we want to know is how it compares with the Golf...
i keep hearing this but i can't seem to find a source
It's got a nice Audi r8 style front diffuser
lovely car
QQ why aren't these available in America?!?!
Very cool car, but I think Volkswagen should give it a facelift or even, a brand new version.
It's an actually sporty looking hatch, i say with the next gen one just stick a golf badge on it and forget the dreary mk7 golf.
