I was contemplating my options and discussing with my wife that I might have to buy the white demo.
I had to go to Bunbury for business the next day, dropped in to see the VW dealer there and he said I'll get you a new blue one.
2 hours later he had done just that and we did a deal.

I missed out on all the stuff that the demo white one had fitted but got the colour I wanted.
Only had to wait about 6 weeks.

By coincidence I got the call it had arrived on the day my wife went into labour, which was the very reason I wanted the car in the first place. Got to be happy with that.

Congrats mate!...I too got this car as the famil is expanding

Too bad the wife didn't like the wagon, else more space for the family but am happy with our choice.

My wife hated the wagon too
With the roof rails on it she said she didn't want to ride around in a Hearse

Wife and kids hated the wagon - got the Landcruiser, why another 'big car'.

Anyway, wrapped with the sedan.

hhmmmm...i'm noticing a worrying trend here lads!

Neil, congrats on the new addition to the family, hope all is going well with mum and bub.

I was in the same boat, and glad we got the wagon..just a lot easier to load in and out ALL the stuff that comes along with a baby. Really paid off when we travelled up to Canberra & Sydney for Easter with every nook and cranny of the car packed with baby stuff!

Sedan or Wagon at least the enjoyment is the same!!

Cheers,

Jayse.

Agree 100%
Boring world if we all liked the same things

I hasten to add I'd be happy with either the wagon or sedan!

Had a chat today with an owner of a new M3 who was gobsmacked with the lines and interior of the R36 (there aren't too many R36s in the ACT). He didn't believe the price for all the kit and performance - 'the ultimate sleeper' has now become 'the ultimate bang-for-buck'!

Guess I'm one of the lucky last few to get his hands on a gem! Collecting mine tomorrow! Hooohhooooo!!!! Always wanted a sports car but without the looks of a 'sports car' if you get my drift

I just noticed that it doesn't have MDI actually!....guess will have to make do with the SD card and built in HD..
Now the manual is a real test! ...

Update: In the manual it says MP3 is fine, but dealer mentioned that MP4?? is the format only? Comments?
