Got mine

Finally got my Scirocco, exact spec I wanted bar the xenons (which I really missed on teh drive home). DSG is impressive, really impressive. I originally wanted a manual but decided to get a DSG instead, no going back.. getting used to it for now but when it becomes intuitive I know I will not miss a manual 
This model has the electric drivers seat, folding mirrors auto everything - we dont have these as options as they should come standard, but most of teh initial models are poverty spec, except for this one. VWSA took anything from VWAG apparently for initial launch.
FWIW I picked it up in Cape Town, RSA and then had to drive it 1500km back home in Johannesburg. What a mission, but its now nicely run in. Had no plates on it as it was a new car, so I wasnt really worried about speed traps, until I was stopped
Cops let me take the picture hehe.
