My black Scirocco: *New wheels fitted*

[supra253]

You also have it because it's standard on the cars here in Norway among other northern countries, as apposed to the UK models.
It's heated front seats, headlamp washers & heated washer jets + washer fluid warning light.

hehe...yeah, I know that's standard. Didn't think of it being an option in other countries, as all cars here are delivered with this.

You got yours with DAB as standard, right? According to Møller the DAB option was removed as an option and included as standard on the '11 model. I almost freaked when I couldn't find it in the online carbuilder or the 2011 price lists. I've just had DAB for 3 months, but can't live without now.

Unless something unexpected comes up I expect to place an order next week sometime for the new car.

The DAB wasn't standard on my car, had to opt for it. They have just made som adjustments to their price list, so maybe they have removed it.They have also removed carpet mats from the R-line pack now, so that'll have to be ordered in addition. As you may have noticed the price on the car and some of the extras has also increased

The DAB radio i fantastic, doesn't use the FM band at all anymore

[supra253]

I think the inclusion of DAB was made for the 2011 price list. Hadn't noticed the carpet mats...don't car, have two sets in the garage so I'm good
Metallic paint went up 300NOK as well. Rule of thumb is that ordering a car now as opposed to in 2010 is about 1% more expensive now in comparison to the 2010 sales price. List price was around 547 000 NOK according to the online builder last year, and now it's almost 552 000 NOK.

Funny thing is that if you order now odds are that what is delivered is a 2012 model due to the huge backlog. Last update in December was first available production to be in week 20 this year, with restrictions on R-Line. Not sure about DSG, but there has been restrictions on that as well for the last year.

When did you order yours?

See you have R-line leather. I'd love to take a look at that before I place an order. Sorta swinging towards standard R-line seats ATM, but haven't seen the R-line ones yet. Or sat in them for that matter! Do you know if they are any different than the leather seats delivered on the '09 version?

[kenti]

Looking at the price it seems you're going for a nice spec car. Are you going to order in the near future? If so we can speed up the meeting a bit so you can have a look at the R-line stuff on my car. I don't know if the R-line leather seats are different from the ones at the '09 version. We didn't think the standard R-line seats suited the black car, that's also part of why I chose leather on mine. But that's just a matter of personal preference as always I does suit the white, blue and grey colours I think, but don't know about the Viper. It may actually look pretty cool with the Viper!

Pretty much everything except leather, NAVI and sunroof right now. Jury is still out on the leather, however. Navi and Sunroof are definitely out. Navi is too expensive and hardly ever used, and what the heck do I need a sunroof for when I got AC?!

If the order is going to be placed it will most likely be at the end of this coming week. Maybe Thursday or Friday. Nothing is final yet, but if I'll be ordering the sooner the better due to the looooooong delivery time. Looking at potential delivery in August right now, which is part of the reason why I haven't decided yet.

Just what I thought when ordering mine as well. All though I must say that sunroof looks pretty sweet on all cars except for the black one.

I have answered your PM, just say when and you can take a look at my leather

[supra253]

Even though I won't order it in black I just love your black R-line!! The Roc is such a nice car in that color.

[sciroccoR25]

cant wait for mine gah its week 3 atm bring week6 already

[aliclay]

Lovely color and the R line is fantastic

[kenti]

Thank's, mate!

[supra253]

Got the H&R kit fitted yet?

[kenti]

Nope, it's a little bit early yet I think due to the snowy conditions here.

My plan was to PM you when the it's time, if that's OK?

Btw, congrats with the seats!

[kenti]

I have ordered H&R 35mm springs now, and while waiting I have done my first "mod" on the rocco, which are LEDs in sidelights and numberplate.
I think the new LEDs look great!

Here are som before and after pics:

[Jeffao]

Looks the BIz mate, matches the xenons much nicer. Out of interest what LED's did you opt for?

Collecting my Deep Black on this coming Wed (16th March)

[Komar]

where can I get those LEDs?

[supra253]

That's nice, Kenti. Looks a lot better than the stock bulbs. Almost a shame that VW don't deliver like that from the start.

[sci-rocco]

very nice!!!!!!!!!!

[vf47]

cool! and very well taken pics..

[Drewcam]

Very nice indeed mate ...

[kenti]

@ Jeffao:
Thanks, mate. I have used these LEDs: http://www.dealextreme.com/p/f102c-1-6w ... -12v-37591" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
You def should get some for your rocco, they make a huge difference!

@ Komar:
See above.

@ supra253:
Thanks. Yeah, the LEDs sure look sweet Why do they put yellow bulbs in the sidelights when you order xenon?? It just look stupid...

@ sci-rocco, vf47, Drewcam:
Thanks, mates!
