Status Plus // Scirocco on Enkei
One of the most prominent path one could take in the quest for car customisation nowadays, is to upgrade the looks of the cars into higher-trims, and then proceed as planned – new wheels, aggressive lowering, and a portion of power bump.

Daily Intake // Scirocco on SSR
In most aspects of our life, simplicity rules – the ‘less is more’ approach is far more satisfying and reliable than the opposite. Picture a simple, honest drinking water.

Bandung Turbo-Frenzy Warriors // Scirocco x GTI
Manic. I’ve been staring in awe, examining the modification specs of these three little hatchbacks inside my mailbox for a full hour. The spec-lists are downright overwhelming. Stage 3+ tunes. Swapped turbochargers. Reinforced footworks. The driving experience must’ve been nothing short of thrilling. As a Volkswagen driver myself, I can’t quite possibly wrap my head around the idea of having …

Nuvolks Surabaya @ Suramadu // Photo Coverage
They say the most influential factor in buying a new car is the chemistry between the car and the buyer. The way the car handles the buyer’s needs and wants. The way it transforms a vehicle into an emotional driving experience. The processes in which it accumulates speed and how it delivers its propelling capabilities. All while looking aesthetically appealing …

Permaisuri Thursday // Scirocco R on Rays
The Scirocco. The lineup that’s been missing for 16 years in VW’s portfolio. The last MK2 ever produced was in 1992, and it wasn’t until 2008 that VW decided to bring the Scirocco back to life. Perhaps it’s due to the Golf’s popularity, and VW not wanting to eat away the sales of its own hatchback lineup. But then the …

Show Off // Scirocco on OZ
Few might have known that there exist a liaison between the Scirocco and the World Rally Championship. No, the Scirocco didn’t compete in the class of MINI, Fiesta and the like due to its larger body; VW has relied on a Polo instead. However, in 2010 VW did use the Scirocco as a safety car for the WRC; it looked …
