Getting hold of a 90tsi wagon

[brad]

Only other difference is that the load height of the hatch is higher (and I think, narrower) than the wagon. I almost got a wagon, but in the end decided on the hatch. Happy with my decision.

1 downside about the hatch though, opening the hatch during or after it rains will definitely cause a bit of moisture in the boot area..

I think the volume might only be measured up to the top of the seat though. Certainly if I was buying again, I'd get the wagon because of my bike/s - I'm sure it would all fit in easier. But if it was 12 years back buying to stow kids strollers & associated crap, the sedan would still be my pick.

re: water in boot. It helps if the paintwork is waxed regularly & the rear window has rain-x. Also, lift the boot & bit & give it a shake & it should (mostly) run into the side channels. pain in the bum though.

Yeah, I got the sedan/liftback and am very happy with it. The wagon just has a lower lip which makes it easier for big items

Hehe, except when I forget and I open the hatch up quickly and the water spills into the inside instead of the channels on the side... Have to go home and wipe down the plastics, etc.

pologti18t,

the i30cw will not be replaced next year. It was only launched in 2008. The petrol is a shocker with absolutely no low down grunt whatsoever and by all accounts chews fuel in the urban environment. The crdi is infinitely better.

.

You think they will run the old i30CW alongside the new I30?
