The official I have ordered/received my new Scirocco thread

[Scratchyratface]

Geez that's a great deal, doesn't look like we'll see another Scirocco for a long time either with VW's cull of models post Diesel scandal. That's a shame because there is a distinct lack of interesting cars for around the $50k mark. I don't want an SUV but all manufacturers are jumping on the popularity of them and unfortunately it leaves me a bit short on what to trade the Rocco in for. Maybe Blue103TDIDSG is right and I should just trade in the Roc for a new one

Tesla Model 3?

[Scratchyratface]

yeah absolutely, have been keeping one eye on that. By the time the Tesla hits Oz then it might be time to trade
For now I have booked a full paint correction for the Rocco just as a treat.

If you want one you better order it now! I was going to put down my $2000 in April but unforseen house expenses put an end to that dream. It's going to be a 2-3 year waiting list if you order one now!
I went to the Tesla factory 2 years ago as a former colleague is an electrical engineer there. Took a Model S P85 for a thrash on the Sunday deserted San Francisco freeways - holy smokes those things move rapidly!

Just signed on the dotted line for a 2016 MY16 demo in Rising Blue for $41k on the road. Just have to finalise the finance & insurance and should be in the drive by Easter

Plans? Stage 1 tune and DSG software will no doubt come in the not too distant future

Adam, I don't want to disappoint you but I think this one may be quite short. It's a really nice car stock and a couple of small tweaks should be all it needs.

And wife actually likes the Cadiz wheels.

Picked up the Rocco today.

Now the carport is complete:





Only problem is the wife now wants to swap cars.... lol

Congrats on the new Rocco mate

[tigger73]

Thanks Lucas I'm really happy with the car. I would have liked the leather seat option but had been warned off them as they can get really hot in summer.

It's a great car to drive - maybe not the easiest to get in and out of but small sacrifices must be made
