I can't believe I finally take delivery of my 1.4 (160) tomorrow after a LONG wait. I stay in the Scottish Borders and was due to take delivery last week but as we had 2 foot of snow I could'nt even get out my village!
Will look to get some pics on soon.
Cheers

How long was the wait then? i ordered my Viper 1.4tsi 160 dsg on the 26th march, i was told by one vw dealer that the delivery time was about 10-12wks on sciroccos, when i enquired the week before i ordered, but now i have been given a provisional date of 16th Aug

My wait was just under 4 months, have to say VW kept me infomred and had already comitted to an agreed amount for my trade and given the terrible weather I was quite happy to wait.
Have to say once you get it, boy is it worth it, the reaction from family and friends is great as well. Just can't stop staring at it !!

Very Nice

the black panoramic roof looks good on candy white rocs, is a shame the roof its self doesnt really open much for the money. nice pics though, your gona enjoy the summer in that puppy

It has to be said the panoramic roof look best on the candy white...
Still waiting to buy my autoperfection bag of tricks, keep waiting for everything I've ordered to be in stock.

I think when you weigh up the options list / cost, the pano roof is good value for me, really adds light to the interior and I agree looks awesome on the candy white.
