The Missus isn't going to approve......
Well, I ordered it last friday, without consulting her in-doors......
I've been hinting at it and shown some piccies, she said 'nice, i hope you're not thinking of getting one'.....
Hmmmmm, what shall I do lol ?..... I couldn't raise the bottle to say, 'too late it's ordered' !! haha.
Anyone else have the same problem? or am i ultimately b**ch whipped
Ahhh well, too late!
Love it!

The one in-doors will prob complain about the colour choice also. For some reason ladies dont seem to like white until they see it in the flesh!

I know yeah! Most people say when I told them i've ordered white - 'WHITE, what u done that for?'........scirocco wrote:The one in-doors will prob complain about the colour choice also. For some reason ladies dont seem to like white until they see it in the flesh!
I've seen a couple in the flesh and they are stunning.... Better looks than the TT imo, for 5-6k less!
Re: The Missus isn't going to approve......
youve done what i did. i ordered it, car before relationship and that.
i just took her too a vw garage and got her to sit in it (passenger side ofcourse) and asked her what she thinks of it as we where walking out, she said, 'yea, its alright'. then i was like 'good cos i ordered one at lunch time'
she didnt believe me, prob still doesnt believe me.

Re: The Missus isn't going to approve......
women are just strange, mine aint a massive fan so today told her i was off to look at a more powerful replacement with a view of getting shot of mine, she then says she'd be pissed off given she likes the attention it gets, you can't win, then realised i have picked the worst day of the year to look at a car

Re: The Missus isn't going to approve......
don't be scared, you just need to somehow convince her it was her idea or that it benefits her in some way ie posing factor..?

Point out how it 'could' be a good investment, since there's such a long waiting list for them, you might be able to sell it at a profit!MrACD wrote:Yeah, that may work.... Although the part where I say 'you're not going on the insurance'......

About the insurance, just say you were trying to save money by only having yourself on it (and stick her name down, and forget to tell her if it reduces your premium )

Re: The Missus isn't going to approve......
Ha ha, I'm liking these pointers
But..... I tried to bring the subject up about it, got poo-poo'd and she starting banging on about holidays........
I may just text it her in the morning and at least she may calm down by the evening when we get in from work...
Not going to work is it!

Re: The Missus isn't going to approve......
Suggest you take her on a test drive in a Chevrolet or a Hyundai ensuring you enthuse all the time on what good cars they are- after this she will be ecstatic when the Roc gets delivered!!
My Roc was fast - but now its FASTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Roc On!!

LCM: Off topic - 400NM and 6 speed DSG is not a good combination. That box is rated for 350NM, hope it lasts.

Why don't you pay for her to go off on a short weekend at the right time. When she returns you'll have a new car on the drivewayMrACD wrote:Ha ha, I'm liking these pointers
