Cruise Control; 2. RCD510 Touch Screen 6 Disc In Dash Changer; 3. 18" Alloys; But both products are just overpriced and under spec'd (in VW standard). I meant how come such niche models has none of the above as standard? What bout the sunroof? And also the Adaptive Cornering Headlamps is also missing..

How can a Scirocco be more expensive than a Golf MK6? Maybe I'm wrong, but I went over to the VW UK site and configured the top options for both cars with petrol engine 6 speed DSG and, no matter how i looked at it, MK6 always comes out with a slightly higher pricing. How on earth can a VW Scirocco be more expensive than a MK6 here by approx. RM34k?? Is it because it is a coupe? I just don't get the mentality of car pricing here... sigh... I just don't get it.
