Re: Options - Mirrors and seats??
The folding mirrors are good value imo......i think they add puddle lights to the underside of the mirror and the reverse mirror down function, but i could be wrong!! I went for the electric seat too, yes im a greedy bugger, i think they're a bit overpriced, should be both front seats for that price...

Cheers Can cost anywhere between £100 and £350 depending on what you want doing....i had it detailed inside and out and also the...

Re: Just got my R, upgraded from GTI 2.0 LOVE IT! Fuel?
If I drive it enjoyingly without pushing it too hard, I get around 25-28 mpg....but driving normally and on the motorway, i'm well up in the mid 30's!! You must be either really pushing it, stuck in first gear or there's something not quite right!! Another thought however, I understand the dsg box l...

Re: Got my R!
Congratulations and enjoy. Mine went in yesterday for an off centre steering wheel. Surprise surprise they could not find anything wrong. It seems "they are all like that". Surely it is only a matter of moving the wheel on the spline but that all seems alien to my dealer. They have offere...

My Rising Blue Roc R's here at last!
After an agonising 4 months and 7 days wait, I finally picked up my Rising Blue Roc R yesterday and i'm absolutely over the moon with it :D :D Swapping from a GT, the car drives and feels totally different, the difference in power is huge, but i'm trying hard not to thrash it until I've got 1000 mil...

Re: Need some stamina building !
Its gotta b the DSG, although I think they've built a few with DSG, there must e a delay on the DSG boxes, or they must e modifying them cos of the mechatroncis problems....I'd be asking for some sort of compensation, and i'd also e ensuring you only pay 15% VAT due to the time taken to complete you...

Re: What should I do?
TO put it into context, i've px'd my 08/08 RB 2.0 GT similar spec to yours but also pan roof, for an RB R manual with every extra available and am paying £13,600 to change. SO your deal sounds not too bad, pretty much what you'd expect I think. I'm due to take delivery in around 10 days so will let ...

Or ring VW assistance and tell them you are not willing to drive the car for your health's sake, thy will arrange for it to be owed to your dealer and sort a hire ...
