@@RossReviewsau Lmao. Apart from that. I love the review on one of my favourite cars. Keep it up! Oh. Hmm. Were you having a bad day? Maybe you were just having a bad day. Eh, I'm sure you were just tired or something.
Nice to see another review on this car. Mine is a 2013 r. it has a APR stage 2 so the exhaust sounds absolutely amazing very deep tone shakes you to your bones..... not ricey or raspy.
I think i would still go a Golf R just because of practicality and all wheel drive.. but i gotta say that Scirocco looks much better!😍 its a shame its not all wheel drive also..

The Golf R shown is the Mk7 and runs a completely different engine than the Scirocco R. Golf R Mk7 has a Dual port injected TSI EA888 Gen 3 engine. Hence the more power (depending on country) The Scirocco R has the TFSi that runs on a cambelt.
Despite numerous information of it being made out to be 3 door as in a way it is, they are also classed as coupes, so I wouldn't say they were in the same category for that reason alone which is why all the comparisons have the gold version in them. They should've made an AWD version even with the non R models. I've owned my stock 2012 1.4 TSI 122 for couple weeks and love it, but even on stock power an AWD system would suit it,. Obviously the 160hp 1.4 and 2ltr models would suit AWD even more.
1:22 maybe in the mk6 golf but definitely not the same engine as the mk7 onwards. Have to believe its a problem with mounting it in the chassis and its not just VW trolling scirocco fans :(
I’m gonna be buyin the top spec pre facelift version of the scirocco R could it go up in price so you think in time?. Also I test drove a stage 1 scirocco R and was screaming the guy must of thought I was mental lol the speed is dangerous fastest car I’ve ever been in WOW the speed throws you in the back seat and feels like a Ferrari
one love you can upload software into the ECU to unleash the cars full potential. So for example at standard they run at 265bhp, mine is remapped at Stage 1 so mine is at 320bhp. Any remap above Stage 1 (stage 2+ etc) you’ll need to change hardware. But basically the stock engine is capable of A LOT more than the manufacturer allows from factory.
@@RossReviewsau haha I like the blend that your accent exhibits, it’s interesting. Also nice review bro, thinking of getting one of these for my next car here in the UK. They’re quite rare round here and the potential is crazy
@@MrCamelite It's actually semi automatic. On the DSG you have the option of sriving it fully automatic or when you feel like having a bit of fun, switching it to semi and using the paddles or shifter.
DSG gearbox is much faster than manual. Sure, manual is fun and driver engaging but DSG is much better. I wouldn't call it automatic when it's still a manual gearbox with dial clutch. You don't see people reviewing R8 and lambos with manual boxes do you?
“Skirrocoo” it’s pronounced shir-occo
yes i believe you are correct 🤣
forvo.com/word/scirocco/
Oh my gosh killed my soul every time he said it
I was willing to forgive him buh man ooh man he said 'skirrocoo' alot 😂😂
its not pronounced shir-occo. its Scirocco.
Shame they’ve stopped building them now. I’ve got the last facelift version. It’s nice knowing it’s quite a rare vehicle.
Marshalls Music hold on to her man.. very very beautiful cars.. it is a shame they stopped production 😢
Not dissing. Just correcting. "SHHHHHHHHHHHHirocco". Not SKSKSKSKSKSKIrocco
appreciate the non diss 😄 yes i realise i butchered the way to pronounce this car lol idk why i could'nt say it right 🤷♂️

Thanks for watching 🙏glad you enjoyed it! Would love to see your car😍 sounds mint having a nice exhaust would make a huge difference 👍

I would have to agree m8 i love the look of the scirocco but its just a shame its the less capable one..
Perth represent! Awesome seeing you drive around Perth and recognising where you are filming!! Awesome!
thanks mate :)
Sciroccos look so much better than the R honestly I’d take the scirocco and tune it
100% the scirocco has all the best looks..
Ross Reviews what a legend replying to your fans
I have one it’s 2015 manual and tuned 😃
@@drjunk7918 what have you done to your 2015 model?

Picked up a 2012 Scirocco 1.4 TSI in Candy White last year. Not near as fast as the R but still a great car. Really fun to drive.
They are epic.. beautiful looks
I have the GT 210 and it rips, if you have a R or GT then dont let it go!
Good review.
Glad you enjoyed it cheers!

Nice review! The 6R is my favourite Golf, but the Scirocco R really is an eye catcher, especially in Rising Blue.
Totally agree! thanks you mate
Awesome video, but xenon not halogen. Hoping to buy one soon, from WA too! These cars are pretty rare.
Thanks for watching! so happy you enjoyed it... good to have a local watching :) thanks for letting me know about my mistake with the headlight
Ross Reviews will definitely subscribe! Have a good one mate!
@@akshayb5265 thank you!!! appreciate the support
Skirocco. Jesus.
Yes, it is!!!
Great video.👍
Glad you enjoyed it.
2:48 wider track(not wheelbase)
Your vids are so good man! Keep producing, the subs will come don’t worry about that!!!
🙏❤️ Thank you! yes it all comes with time... for now im having a blast just making these videos and having awesome people like you comment on them :)
They had a missed opportunity to make it a awd to compete better with the a45, i30n etc. Awd would have made it 1 million times better.
agreed this very well could have been an A45 competitor with AWD and a few upgrades
Despite numerous information of it being made out to be 3 door as in a way it is, they are also classed as coupes, so I wouldn't say they were in the same category for that reason alone which is why all the comparisons have the gold version in them.

I wish they would bring this back and to the states
Would be great eh..
I have the same car and colour its a great car great video!!!!
Mark Lebbing thanks 🙌 you got a keeper m8 love these things 👌🚗💨
I wanna get this car but I have a dog, how is the trunkspace?
Ismail Örnek how big is your dog? Lol if you drop the rear seats should be no worries
@@RossReviewsau knee height pitbull
Ismail Örnek should be fine tho might need the one back seat down
I know it's a really late reply but do you remember if the torque steer is strong in the car because it's fwd i'm planning on buying one
and also how tall are you I see you have a decent amount of head room I hope to have the same
torque steer from memory in this wasn't to bad.. and im just under 6ft tall..

hi sir, what u mean by engine re-maped?
one love you can upload software into the ECU to unleash the cars full potential. So for example at standard they run at 265bhp, mine is remapped at Stage 1 so mine is at 320bhp. Any remap above Stage 1 (stage 2+ etc) you’ll need to change hardware. But basically the stock engine is capable of A LOT more than the manufacturer allows from factory.
Song name?
rocco love
The back seats of my Scirocco are pretty good??? What happend 🤣
maybe im short? lol
Definately a snorting hot looking thing. Y o y VW neglected 4wd option? Golfs look like a brick.
deanosslewis yes this looks way better than the Golf R! It’s a shame they didn’t give it all wheel drive 🤦♂️
At least its better looking than the golf
Richard van Tricht 100% better looking.. one of the best looking hatchbacks I’ve ever seen I reckon
Ross Reviews meh, the alfa romeo giulietta qv looks better, but lacks the power
Richard van Tricht I do like some of the Alfas... hope to review on soon😅📸
Ross Reviews looking forward 👍👍
I think Ross might be 2 cents short of a dollar
haha ill take that.. only 2 cents short happy days
Shirocco silent C skirocco lol 😂
Robert Paget 🤣I’m special like that.. for some reason I just can’t say shirocco 😅🤷♂️
Ross Reviews 🤣😂🤣😂👊
Haha was gonna say
Ross Reviews can’t say or don’t know? Lmao
We need some VTEC love mate 😎
Wormy I’m currently working on locking in a s2000 😏🙏
⛷️ Rocco R
Skeroco
Golf r is awd, scirocco r isnt
yes that's correct lol
The video is made like he wants to go to bed with it

skerocco lol its pronounced sherocco
Yes not my finest hour 😂
It's pronounced shirocco bud 🤣🤣

Leave it to the yanks to pronounce everything wrong
Have a go at him for his pronunciation, And then call him an American…what a hoser 🥴
@@asba4629 don’t see what you’re getting at ye muppet
how can you review a car when its automatic lol
your comment doesn't make sence lol
@@RossReviewsau I just think its better when you review a manual model to get the feel of the car more. my opinion
@@MrCamelite It's actually semi automatic. On the DSG you have the option of sriving it fully automatic or when you feel like having a bit of fun, switching it to semi and using the paddles or shifter.
