Alba euro good, prestige performance at cooparoo good.

Also, someone had bought the dealership and workshops. So the locations will still be there, and still be vw/Skoda. They should be back operating in two weeks.

For North Brisbane folks German Autos have a pretty good reputation

Is this 100% guaranteed? Cause it's very different to what I heard on the news the other day.

That comes from Skoda, as of this afternoon. Not announced yet (well except by me!) but will happen within 2 weeks.

So they return the new car stock to the new franchisee? And everyone is friends again just in time for Christmas? Wonder who took this dealership on? Will they hire any BB ex employees who are out of work?

Was walking to the car and rolled the windows down with the unlock button and a bloke chased me down and was amazed that the car was capable of it haha.

I'm pretty sure my 1998 MK3.5 Cabrio could roll the windows down off the aftermarket alarm button. It definitely did it off the key in the door lock

My parents 98 Nissan maxima did the window thing as well.

it's called global unlock an most euro cars have had it for 10+ years. It's a pretty cool feature! (does sunroof too if you have one)

I think the rain sensor winding the windows up when it rains is a cooler idea.

[GTR27]

It's not coded on mk3s is it? I'm sure I read on briskoda that rain closing had to be coded, and I know it was def on my mk 2 rs.

I'll have to check when I get my car if all models that get the RLHS (rain, light, humidity sensor) can do rain closing std.
