First ever Rocco for private sale?

2011 VOLKSWAGEN SCIROCCO R COUPE DSG 1S MY12 Hatch Private Cars For Sale in QLD - carsales.com.au

Anyone know of this car? Big question mark on why for sale after only 800klms?

[Finance_Analyst]

rich kid who is sick of it maybe?

I knew a guy once who had a few million macquarie bank shares and bought a new car every time it went up a few bucks (in the hey day of 04-07). Went through cars every 500km-1000km and these were nice ones like 350Z, volvo c70, bmw 330ci etc.

Never heard what happened to him after the share price for the Big Mac fell to the floor......

[Mac135]

No but it looks like a standard car with DSG. A competition prize perhaps?

[Vwphile]

Since quite a few Rocco's must have been bought sight unseen and without a test drive, perhaps the owner found something not to his liking. Can't imagine what that would be though

[GTIPirelli]

Maybe the wife found out.

Maybe the wife found out.

haha, that must've been it!. Come to think of it, I've tried to 'sell' the idea of getting a Rocco or R to my wife but she's not buying, might just have to this under the radar then sell like this person if it all goes pear shape.

haha why wouldnt she have one?

Golf R has 5 doors and auto if need be so its perfect for throwing children in the back.

Scirocco is a little more difficult to sell being 2 door.

Could be that he is like the journos and finds it too stiff.

Then he would be a pussy too...they all need to take a dose of concrete and harden up..........

Well I dropped by a dealer on the weekend for my wife to see it for the first time and she hates it, does not like the cup holders. She has a Corolla and the cup holders pop out high up on the dash and are apparently better
And even though she is only 157cm she thinks it is hard to get into because the seat is too low.

Damn cup holders! hahaha

Its amazing what a females perspective of a decent car is.

I couldnt buy the following because my partner didnt like them for various reasons: Anything BMW, Mercedes, Porsche.

I could buy a WRX STi, Audi TT-S, Golf R and the Scirocco R

Hey Andy, going by your Sig, I'm assuming tomorrow is going to be a rather awesome day, yes?

I'm getting rid of the Bimmer in part because the wife won't drive it. She won't have a bar of a Porsche either. Mercedes I could getvaway with as long as it was a C class.

Seat too low? Surely VW have a booster seat option.

Cup holders- weirdly I agree with this. I can't say I've used a upholder anytime in the last 10 years but I think they should be hidden. Just like a Corolla.

I just saw this and had to comment, as I am a female and this is my perspective of the marque's your partner said no to:

BMW - It would most likely have to be a 3 series, as the current 1 series doesn't have any decent engines (prior to the 125i being released). I dislike 3 series with a passion as it's just "meh!"

Mercedes - Only when I either a) retire or b) give up the will to live. Most likely it would have to be a combination of the 2 before I put down my own money for a Mercedes.

Porsche - Not a Boxter, not ever a Boxter. So we're talking Cayman or 911. I would prefer to keep all my organs for the time being. So... not yet.

I don't see any issue in her rationale here
