MK VI Wagon in OZ

[midlifecrisis]

Update - Option 7 Sports (60%)

I wanted to follow up. I am thinking after seeing some Golfs that the Sports Package might be a better spend than the audio/park camera.

I was wondering can people tell me

a) how much firmer a ride is the sports suspension and 17s? (Is it much firmer going over speed bumps in car parks, pot holes)

b) Are the sports seats really much better than the Comfortline ones?

c) Is there much difference in the quality / durability of the sports cloth?

d) How much better is the handling? (Really noticeable?)

Bump - Sport Package views???

BTJ, looking forward to you charging that phone. What colour was it and did it have roof rails?

silver...

cant remember the roof..

The driver seemed totally oblivious to all around him. was trying to catch his eye and give him a wave, but alas,he was on another planet.

I am hoping roof rails are standard as them seem to be elsewhere. Thanks for the spot. Please post pick.

I had heard they had some of the first due for sale coming in the next 3 weeks. System access allows view of them now apparently.

pretty cool. And yes does hve roof rails.

Thanks. Black roof rails like the white one linked above.
Looks like 17" seattles. I can't tell if that is privacy glass but if it is then a sports package is looking likely.
Stubby roof aerial suggests rns510 if I understand this right.

This config looks identical to the one in the UK brochure.

There's no way that's privacy glass... and if I'm wrong, then VW have no right calling it 'privacy glass', lol

Though I'm sure I'm correct, as there is no difference between the passenger window and the rest of them, whereas privacy glass should be lighter on the passenger (and drivers) window.
