Re: Dealer not willing to negotiate on price!
Been on the other forum (helpful bunch) and it seems the way forward is broadspeed.com and asking your dealer to match it. This seems to work. Though I think supply will catch up with demanc (it always does) and then discounts will be the norm again! I found quoting broadspeed or What Car or Which ...

Re: What's your Build Date? (Estimated or Confirmed)
Well all you people with build dates moving forward are cheering me up........maybe mine will arrive w/in the 3/4 months quoted....which would be handy as my scrappage car (Rover 820 that's been in my family from new) decided to throw its toys out of the pram yesterday and blow holes in the radiator...

Six MONTHS?!
Just a word of warning/ shock - called my garage (Colbournes in Guildford) to check on the progress of my order as my scrappage car chose this morning to throw its' toys out of the pram and all its' coolant onto the A3 (please don't be a head gasket....). I explained that I wasn't hassling, but that...

Re: DAB signal issue
I've just received my Roc so it's a 2010 MY. I've had it for a week but the DAB is driving me mad. I would say it's practically unusable. I was looking forward to listening to Test Match Special on Radio 5 Live Extra, but wherever I am it dips out constantly. Oh well, I thought, back to Radio 4 Lon...

Re: DAB signal issue
Interesting mix of comments here! not any wiser to whether this is hardware or signal issue. My local radio station is broadcast from 3 miles down the road and they constantly promote their DAB service so makes me lean towards the hardware problem. Shame really as when the DAB works it's great and ...

Re: Long Wave Radio - yes I know, but it's for TMS!!!
Yes, you can pick up R4 LW on the AM on the car. R5 Sports Xtra has uninterupted coverage, but that's only available for us DAB users. If I recall, it's down at the lower end of the number range. Formally, Medium Wave is only available in some locations: London 720; Plymouth 774; Hayle (Cornwall) 7...

Long Wave Radio - yes I know, but it's for TMS!!!
Does anyone know if the RCD-510 does LW? I've been making do in my car with listening to the Ashes on 5Live online through my phone/ bluetooth but if I'm paying £24k for a car then I want to be able to listen to it properly! So if no LW, then have to get DAB (although I'm sceptical as I've heard in ...

Re: VW reduces production of the Scirocco
I ordered mine on 6th July, 4/5 weeks ago, and still don't have a confirmed build week yet. :grumpy: Not good :( I'm with Colbournes in Guildford and got told I'd know in 2, 3 weeks at the outside. Having said that, their response to emailed questions about the car has been non-existent so far so I...

Re: Scrappage Scheme
One thing I didn't mention, but might be some comfort, is that my dealer strongly hinted to me that someone in a similar situation had already complained to VW when they went o/s the scrappage window and VW agreed to hush it up and honour the £2k. So if you fall outside, argue!! Thats a good point ...

Re: VW reduces production of the Scirocco
Anyone ordered one in the last month and got a build week? I ordered mine last week and am frantically hoping it comes within the 4 months for the UK scrappage scheme (and before my dear old Rover 820 dies a death.....)
