R36 Wagon in Icelandic Grey

**ash** · 10-01-2009, 07:56 PM

Hi Guys,

I just ordered an R36 wagon today to replace my V6 Touareg.

After much debate I settled on "Icelandic Grey" with a black interior. Does anyone have a car with this config. I have searched the web for photos but did not find much.

Can't wait for the car and hope I have made the right choice in colour.

When will you get your grey R36?
Mine should have been unloaded from the boat today at Port Kembla! Not sure how long before I get my hands on it.
I haven't seen an R36 wagon in Icelandic Grey yet, so I too am hoping it is a good colour choice.

Should arrive in late Jan / early Feb. It is on the boat and due to arrive in Aus any day. I had to sacrifice a few options (i.e. SatNav - which I am not too concerned about) to get one in grey within a reasonable timeframe. Had a Biscay Blue wagon overnight for an extended test drive and it was awesome - sold me on the car straight away but I wanted a more chilled colour.

Hi Ash
I'll post some pics for you when I get it.

I've been waiting since April or May for my Icelandic Grey R36, and time has flown by. So hopefully the wait until Feb for you won't be too bad!

I'm getting mine from Barloworld at Mascot, who do you get yours through?

Actually, our cars might be delivered at the same time.

My car was on the vessel Tarifa, voyage number EX812-TFA that left Port Kembla today.

I got mine through Camerwell VW in Melbourne.

I have a Granite deisel wagon also. I really like that colour.

If I could have had the R36 in Granite I would have!
