Scirocco Central

They are a requirement down under too, for the reasons RoccoScientist describes.

Go ahead in my view. Not noisy. Previous car a BMW 135 and at least the equal of that with the added benefit of size.

I have come from a 135i into the Roc R and found the guys on 1addicts pretty good. http://www.1addicts.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=244" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Can't often an opinion on the UK sub site but suggest it is worth a look based onmy aussie experience. Goo...

Yes i have but i'm not sure i'll be much help on the price. So I had my covered cup holder fitted prior to delivery. The parts were around 100 quid and fitting was about the same again. Paid about 350 or so Aussie dollars. I'm planning on doing the console cubby hole myself now that i have the parts.

Hey Con, this second series of shots with the matte bronze wheels are great. Look way less Subaru gold than when you first posted on Watercooled.

Huge improvement on the black too, you can nowcsee the detail in thw wheel design. Great choice.

Cuprabob is right to get the best out of the dsg takes a little work and some adjustment. I recommend you get using the paddles asap and don't spend all your time in D.

My new roc R is my second DSG car. Prior to that all manuals, in between a bmw auto. I'm loving being back in a car with dsg

No, the lights are bi xenons. We only have four options DSG, dynaudio, RNS510 ans the pana roof.

We miss out on leather and the keyless entry system available in Europe and the UK

Just told at 5pm today it is ready. The car is from Geelong somneedto get down there. Either Friday pm or more likely Saturday. I think with my car arriving this week there will be 4 indiums on the road in Melbourne. I opted for Indium for a few reasons but one was that it wasn't black and wouldn't ...

I'm still enjoying these shots. Very Melbourne - where did you take the shots?

Only 5 days to go..........

Best place no doubt about that. Loads of experience some one will sort your creak out soon.

Hey Con, after all of that surely it has to be in the rear suspension somewhere. What else is back there, something to do with the fuel tank or system.

Someone herevwill have some ideas

Option c might be the right answer but statistically i think you saw too many black rocs when you should have seen a rising blue.

Thanks RW.

None the boats on your updated post tie in precisely with the info the dealer gave me but either Trianna or Tampa could be the ones.

I'll get the VIN tomorrow and have a go at tracking it using that info.

Cheers

Things have turned dramatically for me. Ordered in mid-january and expected an early july delivery here in aus. Then last week advice thatbthe car has been delayed until September. Wasn't that happy. But today i'm told that as a result of a dealer swap i can have a new Indium in melbourne on April 2...

Presume you have seen the how to in the roccopaedia? Not a manual but a step by step guide. Might do the trick?

I like the wheels personally i like the 7.1 which i think have a larger hub area than you 8.1's but I think I would be happy to have most of their designs on a car I owned

Would look brilliant in viper Could rename it green tree snake!

Sounds familiar - I am now hoping to take delivery at the end of this week, so a 5 month wait. Hope it proves to be really worth it :-) Good luck with your wait. Dont forget you can track the car on the boat once it is has been built and is headed our way. Be careful not to fall for inflated prices...

Just been told my car will be pushed back to build week 20, having ordered it at the start of February......Thoughts My car was ordered on Jan 13 now told arrival is late August. This means as far as I can see a week 22/23 build prior to shipping to Australia. Disappointed to say the least. Its lik...
