Buying my first rocco

[ScottLloyd90]

Hi all, as you've prob guessed I'm a newbie!!

I currently have a mk5 golf gt tdi but am desperate to get my hands on a rocco.
I will be buying a 2nd hand car and it needs to be a 10plate or newer to suit my new private numberplate.

I am still saving ATM but keeping my eye out and doing some research into what I want exactly
I need to get a deisel due to the millage I do but not too bothered which engine

Is there anything I should be looking out for??
Any extras people would reccomend as must haves??

Leather seats, Audio upgrade, Xenon lights would be my options list. Everything else is fine with the car.

Parking sensors I find is a must have! Visibility from rear window is poor. Also I would say xenons , I don't have them but wish I did.

[ScottLloyd90]

Never had parking sensors before although I have never sat in a rocco to tell how bad visibility is.
I think xenons is defiantly a luxury that I would like.
Leather I also think looks good but not really seen much of the cloth trim either

Yeah, factory fitted parking sensors (with corresponding on screen display with RCD/RNS510 or RNS315) are definitely useful on the roc, something I miss.

Enjoy your searching

Leather looks and feels great. Also another option to look out for is if it's got rns510 installed. Great piece of kit.

I beg to differ on leather. It usually looks great on day one - a year down the line it starts to crease and fold (especially sode bolsters on sports eats), you have a shiny drivers seat etc. Its hot in summer - freezing in winter, until the heater kicks in.

On the other hand the cloth looks fantastic and is comfortable at all times of year, heated or not :-)
