    Jerkiness is probably the "semi-auto" gearbox

    Have the same behaviour on my Renault. If you take off slowly it is gentle, if you push down hard on the accelerator, it "drops the clutch" just like you would do if you are trying to get going quickly.

    At least that is my theory!

    So Paul, getting any other options fitted to your RS??

    I'm getting a Brilliant Silver coloured one - hides the paint chips etc a little easier then the dark cars ( I've owned mostly dark coloured cars so time for a change), with Tinting & tow bar.

    Kind of wishing I had of got a quote on the Nav/DVD Stereo, after doing some research into it they are a good little unit. I can buy one from the US for around $630 USD, but unsure what maps etc would be loaded onto it. But would have been good with the inbuilt hard drive etc, and then connecting it into an extended entertainment system.

    I do a little video camera/edit work with Dirt bike events etc, and i've been thinking the Skoda ads are crap, so been trying to work out something i can possibly shoot and edit that might be appealing and see if VW/Skoda are interested..... Might have to catch up with ya sometime Paul, put the Black & silver side by side.......

    I didn't get any options fitted, I was orginally going to get a Candy White one, but was told I would probably have to wait until sometime in November, however, the dealer found a Black and Racing Blue TDI Wagon in manual coming in early September that hadn't been sold, so I jumped on the Black one.

    Yeah there wasn't too many of the manual vRS's coming in so a good catch.
    I think we are getting the only Silver vRS TDI Wagon with DSG in this shipment.

    I have family in Canberra and I'm sure we'll be down that way between Sept & christmas so will have to keep an eye out for your black wagon and throw ya a wave.
