    Good luck. I have seen a Red/Black Roof and a metallic grey/maroon roof. The red looks really good with the black wheels and roof (Sport model)

    THE_EGG, i would be seaking legal advice. Clearly there is a major deficiency in your vehicle that needs to be fixed under warranty.

    To make sure though that the service manager is being legit with you, get everything he has said and recommended in writing. Then, speak with the dealer principle and get them onside as well.

    If you have had near-death misses due to this vehicle, then it needs fixing. Simple.

    I know, but tbh I just want to get rid of the car. I don't trust DSG boxes now. The principal of the dealer said that they would not refund the money and that they would only buy it back (note they would buy it back for a lousy sum of money) to then sell as a second-hand vehicle. I know that most DSG's a probably ok but I really do not want to be in those situations again like no power while merging on a highway and no power while in the middle of oncoming traffic. So yeh I just want to get rid of it ASAP, which will hopefully be tomorrow if all goes well with Citroen. Btw if I sound angry its not meant to be aimed at you Gavs

    well then where to start...Austral VW DID NOT offer a very good price for a trade value - so I went to where I am buying the DS3 and got a very nice trade value. (Probably because I was buying one of their new DS3's). Anyway, all payments are sorted now and I am very happy with the decision to get rid of my polo and get the DS3. Such a fun little car. I go and pick it up on Saturday morning. CAN'T WAIT!

    I guess you won't be frequenting VWW much longer.

    Goodluck mate and hope you enjoy the ride, i'm sure you will join the QLD VWW cruises when they are happening?

    Give us a report on her after you pick it up.

    well then. I got my Citroen DS3 this morning and got rid of my Polo via trade-in. Very VERY happy with DS3, it puts a smile on my face everytime I get in it or drive it. Also the salesman threw in free mats, free carbon stripe and a free full size spare to keep at home . Very nice at Brisbane Prestige I must say. FAR better than Austral VW. I will upload pictures in the next week. Also, as soon as the revs get past 3500rpm, it feels like someone punched the back of the car :p. Very happy with it.

    And then one of the QLD based gti owners sails past you

    On a serious note though, congrats on the purchase and I'm glad you're happy with it
