    Looking for a Car

    Hi All

    I am looking for a used Scirroco, currently considering to on Carsales.

    1) A Green DSG Car at North Shore VW Sydney. I really want a DSG car (had a DSG GTi back in 06) the colour is the concern. Personally I don't it, just don't want it to become a problem at resale time
    2) A White Manual car private sale, almost the ideal car, it it was DSG and black wheels I would be buying.

    So questions:-

    It appears that most people prefer DSG as 80% of cars are DSG. Any opinions?

    Also will green become an issue later on??

    Cheers Sean

    Looking for a Car

    I Would sell you mine as it has all the requirements ur after, but I have to hold on to it for another year before I upgrade. Looking at getting the new Mercedes A45 AMG. Just wait out a bit. I'm sure u will come across one that you're after.

    I wouldn't pick green either myself, but I've seen a few green ones out there and I think it's the signature colour for that model so I don't think resale will be too bad just because of that.

    I think resale might be a bit of an issue.. I don't mind the green, agree that it kind of is the signature color (or maybe because the press cars seemed to be mainly green and I just got used to seeing writeups with it in there), but would I buy one myself - no.

    Both of those cars dont meet your requirements
    Car 1 - you dont like the green
    Car 2 - not DSG

    Why are you even considering them?

    Keep looking, they will start to appear next year when a bunch of us change out our leases.

    Well waiting a year is not an option, I need a car now. Will try the dealers see what deal I can get. I have the money in my pocket and also need a Touareg for the wife.

    You could always get the green and get it vinyl wrapped which seems to be the current trend at the moment. Theres also some cool colours out there too!

    My Lotus Exige should be gone this week. At the moment the white manual car is favourite, but anything can change....
