11 o'clock this morning we picked up our GT 170 DSG from the dealers. Stopped in our local garage for some motion lotion and 2 people came on to us to complement the Roc. Straight home and put the 'Hatch Bag' boot liner in for the Cocker, now it's pouring with rain, so images to come. Out for a drive now.

Went for a quick blast over the Brecon Beacons and got this shot inbetween the showers. Next time will have to put a polarising filter on, that paint job is really reflective.

Very nice looks amazing out of the rain!
Just took delivery of my indium grey on Tuesday 21st June, same model 170 GT TDi, in a manual. Extras added, leather, DAb, Dynoaudio, Cruise, Electric folding mirrors, Bluetooth, Reversing Sensors.
Love the car already, a beautiful drive, just wish weather would change so can wash and enjoy it more ha ha.
Enjoy the car, great choice of colour, i love it! :clap:

Our son loves the Roc, his neighbour has a Viper. But diesel, he thinks that should be kept for lorries and buses. So I took him for a drive last night, backed off and then kicked down. He was suitably impressed as it felt as quick as his Clio (172 Sport). At 50+ mpg I think he may have changed his mind on the black stuff.

Here's another image:

beautiful :)
me thinks you should have added the additional boot lip extension to the hatchbag though to save your load lip, unless she is queen and gets lifted in & out ;)

Yes, she's my little princess. :nod: This is how she waits to get lifted out of the car. To get in she almost jumps into my wife's arms. Although she has only be used to a cage in the back of a Volvo she is wonderfully behaved in the Roc. As for the Hatchbag it is very good indeed, will certainly keep the boot of the Roc in first class condition.
