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! :clap: :clap:

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). :yummy: 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 both :yes:

Maybe so =) Atleast I hope there will be enough to give the car that lovely leather smell :yes:

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!

edit: just saw that you were in Finland =)

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

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 :nod:
The side window tilting while reversing :yes:
The alcantara seats :yes: :yes:
The navigation's absolute excellence :clap:

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?
