RVC+ the lines turn with the steering wheel.

Ah ok, I thought they were only for larger cars (nothing different about the actual camera, it's actually a steering wheel module)

Just about to purchase the 103tsi and noticed that in the contract the build plate is dated Dec 2012. Is this ok or would this affect the resale value of the car? I was expecting the build date to be 2013 at least.

Some may mind, some won't. Being one of the first MK7's will probably be a bigger factor later on.

We just sold our Mk5 TDI. It was purchased in Feb 2008 and officially MY08, but build date was August 2007. When getting it valued for trade-in on our new car the dealer claimed that the 2007 build date reduced the trade-in price by a few hundred dollars. However, we ended up selling it privately and I don't think the buyers really cared. YMMV, of course.

Ask for more $$$ off the price or something to sweeten the deal. It will affect (to some extent) the resale later on.

Discover media pro

Has anyone heard if its possible to get the discover media pro for the golf mrk7?? I see its an option everywhere else but Australia... I would love to get it optioned for the golf I'm about to buy...

[VUU]

In all of the official Australian specs that I have seen, the Discover pro is not listed as an option. Current rumours on the Aus GTI specs suggest it will be standard (?)

[Golf7]

The fact that the normal ones don't have it is to differentiate the normal Golfs from the GTI a bit more...

[Ryan_R]

Maybe in a year or two (MY14, MY15) they might make it available as an option ???

Does anyone know if we get DAB?

Hopefully, trouble is that in the meantime we can't really just swap the normal units with the Discover Pro. Actually, it's impossible, due to the new electronics needed and quite a few changes to the dashboard itself. I remember from the cutaway that the dashboard cross-member is actually slightly different as well. The system can only be fitted in the factory unfortunately...

Don't think so, nope.

Some of the promo videos show the golf with some rims that look like the golf R rims. Does anyone know what they are and if they are available in Aust? I think I've I've attached the link below. http://youtu.be/GV8DyOFGPGA

Hi Davefonzi,

I have been trying to work out the same, they are either Durban 18 inch or Mardrid 17 inch, both from what I see are only overseas, I have asked the dealers, but they have no idea ..
