How to track the car you have ordered?

[Golf_R]

Thanks Golf_R, where did you buy yours from - perhaps we have the same dealer with the same story?

My Dealer is Barloworld at Botany ... They have great so far.

Hang in there mate. I reckon your car should be an MY11 R instead of an MY10. Good to see another Recaro owner!

I'm picking mine up in about 14hours =)

Damn you must be struggling now lol. No more updates for me today on my R. Hopefully will hear some more news next week on when its going to be ready for pickup! Goin craaaaaaaazy!!

DDTW - Not long now buddy. Let me know what you think about the recaros. When I spec'd my car I hadn't seen them in the flesh, just what was on the Recaro Website. But they looked good from that and I thought it would help provide a little originality since there will be alot of R's on the streets in the next 12 months and I was going to spec leather anyway.

I'm interested if the rears are different from the optional leathers.

From the pics the rears seem to be different - they have the suede insert rather than full leather.

I haven't seem Recaro's in the flesh either - sort of ended up with them by accident!

My car is just rocking in to Port Kembla as we speak! Only a few k out...

The Recaros give a good snug & are very comfortable for me (I'm a short a$$ 5'9" 67kg male). I reckon they really give the car an X-Factor. Dislikes about them are getting in/out & it's unability to slide forward & backwards when tilting the seats.

Yes Beena is right - the back seats have microfibre (faux alcantara/suede or whatever you wanna call it) inserts in the middle and leather at the sides. Gotta be careful not to stain them!! I do maccas drive throughs pretty often =)

Here's hoping for a quick trip to the dealer.
