Woot! Woot! another .:R member. Black looks menacing

Looks like we got the 'last' black .:R with sunroof in Aus - stock is almost entirely gone

picked up the silver pirelli on Tuesday. Interior minister had a go and said "bumpity bumpity, drone drone drone....so noisy and bumpy, give me a luxury car anyday". I don't mind. Means she doesn't get to drive it. The tin lid loved the noise and bumps even better than our disco3 diesel. slept the whole way home.

Damn sydney commuting traffic. beside hooning down the m5 once, haven't had a chance to stretch it's legs real good yet .

"new to me"

It's a 08/MY09 with 30k on the clock. Relatively high ks but I got a good deal, and it was the only one I could find with leather seats (my dogs hair gets right under those annoying and ugly little red ribs on cloth upholstery).

Graphite Blue with grey leather trim, bluetooth, reversing sensors, tint, etc.

I don't think you have

After much checking around stock Australiawide, managed to source one Black R32 08/09 brand new 5 door with sunroof. Deposit paid

Very much looking forward to taking delivery in about 10 days' time.

But you are right though, almost ALL the dealers who check on the VW stock control list return none of the .:R in 5 door with sunroof. There are only a few silver 5door with sunroof. None in blue or united grey with roof.

I think we are probably the lucky last two......
