SPORTECH KIT FOR VW SCIROCCO

SPORTECH SAYS: Seldom has a car been greeted so enthusiastically as the second-generation Volkswagen Scirocco and it is pretty much a given – despite the niche positioning of the sexy Golf-based coupe – that there will soon be plenty of them on South African roads.

Which, to some degree, contradicts one of the key reasons for buying such a distinctive machine: exclusivity. But help is at hand and the country’s leading optical tuner, Sportech, has introduced this striking bodykit for Scirocco, which is guaranteed to make it stand out even in the most hallowed automotive circles.

Made from strong yet flexible injection-moulded polyurethane, Sportech’s fully-imported Scirocco bodykit comprises grille and front spoiler, side vents (which tuck neatly up against the side sills), bold roof spoiler and a rear diffuser. Sportech can not only supply this high-quality kit, but thanks to their modern Johannesburg facility can fit and paint it to a standard which complements the car.

For approximately R30 000 a Scirocco owner can be back on the tarmac with a car altered in a way which not only suggests ‘original equipment’ fitment, but with a large dose of extra sex appeal thrown in along the way. Sportech is also able to offer wheel/tyre packages which will take it a step further up the street-cred barometer.
