Your New Rocco Ride Pics Thread

[why_999]

Did any of you guys drive up burwood rd tonight in a CW with panoramic roof? Great to see what my car is going to look like in the flesh. Its going to be a long 2 month wait for me!

If it was about 9ish, that would be me

And Andy, no not the rims I'm going to get them painted first, then most likely seal then my self.

GTI - thanks for posting the pics. Looks very smart and a great colour choice.

was a beautiful day for a drive in the country today!

See you have added the VWR rear spoiler since your last posts. Any other mods yet?

No problem. You're probably likely to spot me around your area. I live in Bentleigh East. I wouldn't think there are too many greys around at the moment.

Not far away at all.

I haven't seen a single car on the road here yet. Just on dealers forecourts.

From what I can tell, at least on this forum we are the only two to have Indium - actually you are the only one to have Indium and I'm still four months away.

Hopefully now there are a few guys here in Melbourne with a variety of cars, specs and colours that a meet might not be too far away

Some pics of my Indium Grey Rocco R.

Hopefully pics show up!

You are better off using Photobucket... It is much quicker than Flickr and they come up nice and easy in here...

no mods as of yet, have a corner of parts gathering that I really must get on the car though....

It looks like you have a votex rear spoiler.

New ride looks great GTI.
Couldn't help but notice that your stealer was Barloworld.
If you don't mind me asking did you get any discount on the standard drive away price.
Thanks! And enjoy your new ride

They wouldn't budge on the drive away price. However, I was happy with the trade in price of my Pirelli ($30K) considering that carsales had a number of them around the $32.5k mark. Meant I did not have to go through the process of selling the vehicle etc.

Could have perhaps got a better deal if I was more patient and waited a while longer but I was keen to upgrade.

BTW, Barloworld weren't too great to deal with. Next time I'll go somewhere else.

You really need to remove their advertising sticker.... I have told my Dealer I will not be accepting the car if there are any stickers on it.

Is there a good way to remove those stickers?

Yep... scrape it off and remove the glue residue with eucalyptus oil... I also get rid of Dealers number plate holders... they are cheap and I see no reason to be a moving advertisement for them... even more so if they won't move on pricing...

I simply peeled mine off slowly. Any residual sticky stuff, just use the sticky bit of the sticker side and tap down on the parts that werent removed when peeling it off.

Then use a microfibre cloth make it all shiny again.


(Or you can do as Andy said and use tea tree or eucalyptus oil)
