Volkswagen Look up!, CC Black Edition & Scirocco GTS Special Editions hit the UK

Volkswagen Look up!, CC Black Edition & Scirocco GTS Special Editions

Volkswagen has released special edition models of the up!, CC and Scirocco in the UK with styling tweaks and equipment upgrades.

As we often point out, the start of the new year isn’t the best of times for new car sales, so car makers usually resort to special edition models with styling tweaks and equipment upgrades to tempt buyers in to showrooms.

This year, Volkswagen has delivered up a quartet of models to make buyers look more favourably on their offerings – particularly in the wake of the dieselgate problems – with an up! special edition – the VW Look up! – a Scirocco special edition – the VW Scirocco GTS – and a pair of CC special editions – the CC GT and R-Line Black Editions.
