The Marrakesh leather is the brown leather interior.

Ah velour! That brings back memories lol.

Fabric seats are more comfortable for Australian climate (unless you get forced ventilation seats) but are a pain to keep clean (unless you are a strict Nazi in the car). Leather needs only periodic maintenance to keep looking great well into the vehicle's lifecycle, and I think the Marrakesh leather looks very refined against the light and dark grey tones of the console and footwells.

The waiting time for the Golfs at the moment is about 1 week! Get them quick before they all go! Ohh and one more thing, I just saw a 77TSI MK6 Manual being sold for $17k!!! Brand NEW!

Hey, just wondering if any one who has just upgraded to the mk7 from the mk6. I'm looking to buy a 7tdi but the 6 is going out for 6k cheaper. Is it worth the extra cash?

That's subjective to the value you place on a newer, better car, and the value you place on your income.

My head says no, but heart says yes....

I would say get the Mk6 if you plan on keeping the car longer than 3-5 years.

Is that mainly from a resale point of view?

I think I may have gone off topic. Sorry.
I have been told that the waiting period is around four months for the combo that I want. Which is sunroof and drive assist. If I wanted one or the other, the wait would be less. It's the combos at the moment which are taking time to get. Though it is nice to imagine that the car is being made just for me.

Ordered mine yesterday. 110 TDI with driver assist and sunroof. I have to wait till October though because of the sunroof.
I really wanted the sunroof. I figure this car is the last chance i'll get to let the wind blow though my hair before it becomes the wind blowing through my comb-over

So pumped though. Best car in the class IMO.
