Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    For some reason its not a popular colour for reviews, personally I think it looks great, much better than the black which I checked out in the flesh at my dealer. The R-Line pack is a bit wasted on the black as the body kit blends in too well IMO.

    Grey is nice ..

    I actually went black because it blended in so well.. my preference is a better blend.. looks that bit classier that way in my opinion but everyone has their own preferences in the end. As long as you are happy with what you have.. that's all that matters. Oh.. if only this wait was not so damn long!!!

      We choose the indium grey, and was lucky to see it in RLINE form.

        Dont get me wrong, my current Tig is black so that was also a factor re not getting the black despite being available there and then (at $65k no discounts!!), it was just too much like the current one!

                Yeah they were in full "rape mode" on that one as it was a Corporate order that had fallen through so it was sitting on the showroom floor with no owner all of a sudden, they knew it would sell so "No Discounts"!

                I ended up ordering our grey one fully loaded elsewhere for $58.4k including corporate membership discount.

                    Yeah I know, and I believe yours arrives a month or two before mine so I'm relying on you for my photo fix in my last waiting stage!
