Golf Alltrack

[Rooboy]

I've ordered a Black Pair as it looks OK to me - still waiting for my car - the ship called into Melbourne, then Port Kembla and has just off loaded my car in Brisbane - now they have to rail it back to Melbourne in order to ship it to Tasmania - why they didn't off load it in Melbourne is beyond me. I do think red might be an overkill in your case

It depends when you ordered it - the cars get loaded in a sequence for delivery and, once on board, the offload point can't readily be changed. These ships can carry up to around 6000 cars and to get one out of sequence car off may involve the movement of lots of cars, slowing down the ship's delivery schedule significantly. When I ordered mine it was an unallocated car that was already on board the ship. It went to Pt Kembla and had to be trucked back down to Melbourne which added a few days but was no biggie.

If it is going from Brisbane to Melbourne by rail I'd plan on doing an extra thorough iron de-contamination, railways are notorious for leaving small particles of iron on cars. It's not a big deal, just a normal step in detailing a new car.

Oh Well, something to look forward to in the New Year - one of the first things I will be doing is getting it Opti-Coated, I found a place in Launceston that does the process, that should take care of the iron de-contamination (thanks for that advice).

Hi all, is it possible to fit 15" wheels on an Alltrack?

Hi all, is it possible to fit 15" wheels on an Alltrack?

Assuming they have 312mm front rotors? Smallest you'll get on 312 is 16". 288mm will take 15"

I saw a 132tsi Premium in Tungsten Silver on the road today - looked a lot better in the flesh than I thought it would.

Just looking at an Alltrack 135 with all the options. Build date Dec 17 and not registered, so new.
Any suggestions what would be a good price to aim for during the negotiations.
Any help greatly appreciated.

With a 2017 build date i would push for mid forties i think
I got mine early and was the 1st 7.5 alltrack registered so paid full whack to get it quick and was 50k with all options on road i know some others who waited and got another 2kish off the price
So mid forties if you can haggle should not be a issue
Good pick the diesel is a great strong motor with heaps of torque
Plus you will love all the options the panoramic sunroof is great
Adaptive cruise is so good in heavy traffic
I love the digital dash (especially as its the r dash now thanks to obd11)
But the best is the dynaudio system never had a better sound system
Good luck with your purchase
Don't forget to let us know how you get on

Thanks for the quick, detailed response Kachingg really helpful. I will definitely let you guys know how I go with negotiations over the next week or so.
Took the 135 for a test drive yesterday, thought it was a great drive with plenty of torque for easy passing, quite and better than expected ride.
Very impressed indeed. As you say the dash and sound system are brilliant.

How do I get obd11 working in aus now? I bought it in 2016 and the app doesn’t appear to work from Australia anymore

obd11 works fine. Do you have the latest .apk loaded on your phone/tablet?
