Mk7 Golf - Australian Specifications and Prices (Base, Comfortline and Highline)

[Davefonzi]

Does anyone know if we get DAB?

[Golf7]

Maybe in a year or two (MY14, MY15) they might make it available as an option ???

Hopefully, trouble is that in the meantime we can't really just swap the normal units with the Discover Pro. Actually, it's impossible, due to the new electronics needed and quite a few changes to the dashboard itself. I remember from the cutaway that the dashboard cross-member is actually slightly different as well. The system can only be fitted in the factory unfortunately...

Don't think so, nope.

Hi Davefonzi,

I have been trying to work out the same, they are either Durban 18 inch or Mardrid 17 inch, both from what I see are only overseas, I have asked the dealers, but they have no idea ..

The Dijons are nice but those wheels look amazing. I would like to track some down somehow.

Hi Guys

Just wondering if it's possible to option up the base model Mk 7 Golf with Sat Nav and if so at what cost? I've seen a $950 figure used when upgrading the Comfortline with this option, but just wanted to confirm this was the case with the base model too?

Cheers

No according to the VW specs sheets. Can't have the xenons, sunroof, alarm system, driver assist package or leather either but I'd imagine most base model buyers would have gone for at least the Comfortline if they were interested in those features. As a base model owner the only one of those options I would have considered is the xenons but not at the $2000+ price. They are actually priced at more than 10% of the base price of a 90 TSI. In fact all of those options together would get you close to the total base model price.

Thanks for the info Sucks though, was looking forward to getting inbuilt GPS, but not if it's going to cost me 3-4k minimum over and above the base model price...
