shao_khan Posted January 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 Yeah but VW make all cars look good in the brochure - even the GOlf plus looks good in some pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt R Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 Dealers will probably all have them by now, We have 2 on site currently! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pincher Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 Well, go outside and take some pics on your cameraphone then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shao_khan Posted January 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 I've been told that VW have warned staff not to reveal them before the date - so 'having work to do' might mean 'more than my jobs worth' I think every dealer has them now - its just a case of us getting pictures.

[/ QUOTE ] Hardly, We have one in the showroom as will most dealers as of last friday, Its more of a case of using an 8800 that takes crap pictures!

Matt R Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Oh and also the fact that I don't really want to look like an vw anorak in the showroom taking pics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davyk31 Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 Thanks for the pics Matt. Is that a Sport model? Do you know when the 170bhp diesel will be released. Looks a bit better than I expected but still maybe a bit short looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davyk31 Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 And another question Matt that you could answer. I know this is a brand new model but with todays climate I would expect discount should be available from the start, is that a correct thought and what kind of discount should we expect.

Matt R Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 It is a sport model, we also have an Escape model in the showroom, which I think looks a bit ugly! The 170 version is due in July this year, along with the TSi 170 and the 200Tfsi. I think it will be hard to get a discount on them as we are a very large dealership and only have an allocation of about 20 for the entire year!

davyk31 Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 So how many will hit the UK each year if a large dealer only has 20 to sell, sounds quite exclusive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shao_khan Posted January 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 I think they want to get them seen and in the market place and will keep first year production a little short to try to increase demand - perceived exclusivity. Saying that you might find someone who will give you a discount. Doesnt look too bad in the pics - and thanks for posting them - looks like it might have a boot size comparable to my old Lupo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjie Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Like the front (except the dodgy sized indicator) and the back is a bit of a shame. Standard inside really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazr32 Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 popped in to my local dealers this morning on the way in to work, must say it looks a nice piece of kit.might book a test drive next week as the missus quite fancies one and it will keep her out of the R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt R Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 I think the boot is where it will lose sales! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danksy Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 Beadles in dartford... it looks oo: in my opinion Kind of a pointless car, not big enough for a family SUV, but too big to be a family saloon. It has a neat self parking system as an option though I don't like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoSheds Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 [ QUOTE ] I think the boot is where it will lose sales! [/ QUOTE ] ...Yes the boot space is very disappointing and will put a lot of people off. Seeing the car in the flesh I quite liked the overall appearance. From the pre release pictures I thought it might look like the dreadful Mazda Demios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nelson_R32 Posted February 3, 2008 Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 Once they bring out an Accessories Package with side steps and chrome bits I can really see it being a 'sensible' alternative to a Toureag. Black paint, Leather, Nav, 19 inch wheels, tints and a 2.0TDI 170bhp engine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shao_khan Posted April 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 Well mine arrives tomorrow so I'll give a quick review. Hoping I've bagged one of the new common rail TDi versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
