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,

      Nah.... we always new it would be about Golf R pricing. The 3 door Golf R was $48,490 (6MT) and $50,990 (DSG). So this is $1000 less for a smaller car with no AWD.

            I've heard they'll be available for test drives before Christmas, but that's all I know

              Oooops I meant to say 2011. I'm an accountant, so think of 2012 as being the 'current year'.

                Depends on the Dealer I guess.. my Dealer will have 2 vehicles in December for Demo's and a further 2 due in March....
                VWA have stated that limited numbers of cars will be available in December for test drives ahead of Official release for sale in January.

                Dealers go to the Scirocco training day some time in December on the Gold Coast was what my Dealer mentioned....

                  That sorta puts paid to the "there will only be 20 cars in the initial batch for Australia" rumour that others have talked about

                    No one knows how many cars are in the first batch other than VWA. I doubt very much that every Dealer will have 2 cars for Demo's or that every Dealer will get 4 cars in their Allocation.

                    It could actually be that there are only 20 cars in the "first" batch which will be for Demo's, that would be a reasonable number for the whole country...

                    Just so there is no doubt about the "first" batch... this is an excerpt from the e-mail I received from VWA (after I had placed my order)

                    The Scirocco R will be in dealerships, available for test drive in December 2011, prior to its January 2012 launch, but if you are ready to place your order you can do so today.

                    Note It does not say "every" Dealership... only Dealerships.... take from that what you will...
