  • Or did I get screwed out of my pretty R logo on the secondary key?!

    Comment


    • I don't have the R logo on either key!

      • What the heck!?

        • Contacted VW Germany and discussed it. For clarity the cars are shipped with two R logo bottom pieces which are there to be fitted and requires only a Torx screwdriver. What's happening is PD teams are pocketing them along the way I'd say. Jerks.

          • The sales manager told me he saw it in the glove compartment when I asked about it after I did my own thorough inspection of the condition of the car. Got them to fit it on both keys for me without any problem.

            That's just plain disgusting and unprofessional. You should make a complaint to VWA

              Definitely something to check for when taking delivery. If both keys aren't suitably bedecked then the dealer will be required to order the part(s) required.

                I'm the same. My primary key had the R logo, and the secondary key had no logo, but a second R logo base was in the glovebox in a little plastic bag.

                  • Hi all

                    I've had mine for 5 weeks and loving it.

                    Some photos here from a trip to the Blue Mountains (I've since changed the plates to ones that fit better)

                      Great shots mate. Nice to see someone who appreciates good light and scenery in their pics.

                      Love this one.

                      • Still haven't seen many R Wagons around - only 2 in the past few months. Are there any more owners here?

                        Would be nice to see one with different rims too...

                          • Debadged sides and R / Wolfie rear. Going in for full opticoat Friday. Black gloss VW badging going on this week.

                            Coming from a scirocco I love the size of the car as well as the increase in handling with the 4motion.

                            Happy owner here.

                              Looks good. I've been thinking about de-badging my R hatch and switching out the VW logos for monochrome versions.

                              • So the Mrs managed to scratch one of the wheels on my Wolfie R wagon. Only about half inch scratch but annoying :/ yes the rim is dirty it only happened yesterday and I haven't had time to clean them! Anyone know the colour code or appropriate touch up paint for 19" black Pretorias? I want to make it less noticable until I can get a proper alloy wheel repairer to do it. Was just going to use this for now.
