Good call sticking with the roc.

You could always check out the Seat Leon FR diesel. Essentially a Golf GTD for £5k less.

Used to have the original PD 170 version. Great car that is let down by a tatty interior. The new facelift interior is really ugly. Shame but apart from that, cracking car and an absolute steal!

Well the days of my ROC are numbered. I have traded it in (well in two weeks) for a Jaguar XF! :eek:

I loved the ROC but I need something bigger with 4 doors, a diesel, that's luxurious for the millions of miles I seem to do a year that wasn't a passat, BMW 3-5 series, C class or Audi A4-5-6....

It's been a great experience. Enjoy your ROCs guys. Part of me will miss it!! :)

36k. And let's face it, it's a hell of alot of car for the money!! It was a tough call to make but nothing else actualy ticked the boxes and actually had some soul in the same way the roc has done.
