A candy GT, soon in the hands of a SWEde!
Had the dealer checking status of my car since I dropped by today. Have been given build week 31 and was therfore very pleased to here that it has already left the factory!
In comparision to the exterior looks, I do think the roc' s interior can look a little weak. Yet I hope that the diffrent packs and combinations I choosed will give it a little push; Black roof lining, titanium black alcantara seats, black frames around air condition things (I speak swedish), metal pedals and the satnav. And the smokers pack (not to be forgotten). Couldn' t afford the vienna leathers, otherwise that makes a big different!
Dealer now said 3 to 4 weeks!

The alcantara is a much better choice over leather in my opinion. BTW alcantara has leather so i think you got the best of bothkurre3 wrote:titanium black alcantara seats Couldn' t afford the vienna leathers, otherwise that makes a big different!

Good to hear mate! I have no idea how the transportation is routed though. Maybe they're on the same ship route and as a result Sweden gets it a week later or so.. Good luck picking it up!Veeto wrote:Mine was built also week 30 and going to pick it up tomorrow!

Alcantara seats are very comfortable and they feel much more high quality than they look on that picture. You're gonna love them =)

Re: A candy GT, soon in the hands of a SWEde! *arrived
I'm absolutley loving my new car! It's now one week old and 1500 kilometers..
The only thing that bothers me is that noise (grinding noise at 2500-3000 while opening the trottle a little extra) from the engine, which I hoped was going to be fixed for the 2010 roccos.
On the other side I'm LOVING:
How the xenon moves into position while starting it up
The side window tilting while reversing
The alcantara seats
The navigation's absolute excellence
And of course the whole deal with a BEAutiful car which is SO much fun combined with functionality and high way cruise comfort!
The car was delivered with a small scratch which soon will be fixed by the dealer.. I will get the premium door sills as for compensation. Fair?
