Re: Collecting my new Roc this morning

your Pewter grey looks like it could be teflon coated like your pans! Maybe stick a big red dot in the middle of the roof so you know when it's hot enough?

small dent to wheel arch

any ideas or suggestions appreciated. We've got a small (less than 1cm long) dent / crease on the rear wing where the wheel arch flattens off. Do any experts here think this will be repairable without paint? It's not deep, only noticeable close up.

Thanks in anticipation

If you try lessening the pressure on the steering wheel and it goes away then bob's your uncle. If the above doesn't match yours then du...

Re: Scirocco Vienna Leather seats

mine's got leather but only cos the car was already built. Yes it smells and feels really nice and gives the car a luxury, quality feel but I don't reckon it's worth a grand and a half. If i had the choice it would be xenons, DAB, nav and parking sensors. oh and some 19" Luganos. good luck ummi...
