I have a Roomster in the driveway atm. It has 301 klm on the clock, is bright "wrx" blue and is a 1.9TDi manual. It took a few klms to get used to the drive, but it is well finished and has a funky 2 tone dash and trim interior. The rear doors are HUGE, but there's enough room to swing a cat in the back. Seems as if it could be economical too. Downside is the initial lag before the turbo cuts in and you can't drive much more than snails pace with the driver's window down - the wind noise from the B pillar is terrible. I'll add a pic and more words after a few more klms.

Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before.
We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

wind noice
I checked again and still found the wind noice irritating, but overall the car was thought to be "funky" "cool" and was moe attractive to the younger set. It could easily fit a bar fridge in it but we just filled it with cans of drink for the WA VW show.56 Oval - 1st car
