Re: Retro-fit Cruise, definitive answer??

I've had exactly the same response from 3 dealers - no retrofit possible on my (2011) model! TBH tho with regard to warranty, knowing Awesome, I would imagine they will provide you with peace of mind in the, unlikely, event of something going wrong with the car that could be directly attributed to t...

AA one year, RAC the next - cashback there too!

Worth a look if nothing else.

Re: AA roadside assistance renewal

Companies must make a fortune from people who just renew without doing any checking. I got my AA renewal notice yesterday and it was a rather hefty £225 for home start, relay and roadside help. So I went online, plugged in the same services and got a quote of £99! Rang them up, said I wasn't very h...

Re: Another Rocco stolen

ive just changed my euro locks on both double glazed doors for high security locks and takes about a minute per lock and its so easy you wont believe it. All normal euro locks can be snapped/bumped in seconds rendering the high security bolts useless. Cost 39 quid per lock. Nice post. :yes: any lin...

Re: Need help

The first thing you should do is check how much insurance will be. I can tell you now, it'll be mental. Don't want to sound like an old crone, but your first car should really be an old shed of car for under 2k. Statistically you're very likely to prang it and you won't mind one jot if it's an old ...

Re: TDi 170 GT DSG Viper 18 months 60,000 miles

As a Candy (best colour IMHO as it shows of the lines better than any other) owner, albeit with a wrapped black roof, I've got to disagree with you on that one. However got to agree with the 'orange'. Order a Candy, save yourself £300, and put it towards a full, orange, wrap! Go on, you know you wan...

Re: Kids

Well we've got two 'kids' - one is 6'6" & the other is 6'1" and they both fit in the back of the Roc, whenever they want a free meal out, so no problems there. However, and this is just a personal thing, until they were old enough to have their own cars I ALWAYS went for a four door ca...

Re: Getting rid after a year......

I'd be interested to hear your impressions of the 170 DSG before and after REVO do their thing on it. There doesn't seem to be much information about longevity or otherwise of the DSG clutches after a software upgrade. The 170 makes exactly the same Torque as the R as this is the Torque limit of th...
