Description
Volkswagen Scirocco R 2.0 TSI DSG (2017) - 77,200 miles - Rare R Model
LOCATION: Belfast, Northern Ireland
Overview
Selling my 2017 Volkswagen Scirocco R DSG a rare and highly desirable performance model that's becoming increasingly hard to find, especially in Northern Ireland. The car has just been professionally deep cleaned and has a brand-new battery fitted. It drives well, boosts properly, and performs exactly as expected from the R.
Mechanical Transparency
Full and honest disclosure:
The car drives normally with strong boost and no performance loss.
Volkswagen have confirmed one piston is cracked, which results in higher-than-normal oil consumption.
My local VW dealer have stated the engine does NOT need replaced, and that the car is safe to drive as long as the oil level is checked and topped up when required.
No drivability issues other than the periodic oil top-up.
The front driver-side alloy was cracked from a pothole last year and has been professionally welded and repaired.
All of this is fully reflected in the price.
