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.

    New CC road test by Top Gear

    I was just surfing and came across this story by the team at Top Gear UK, and as I have seen a couple of threads about the new CC coming to Australia I thought this might be interesting to a few here.

    Nice! Methinks I could see myself move up in life from a stock standard B7 125TDI sedan to this beauty ... but take a look at the price in British pounds quoted on TopGear's website! So, £24,200 is the equivalent of $A37,339. Yet, we get charged well over $A50,000 for the base model diesel CC. To be fair, they do have to ship them a long way and our government charges a luxury car tax, but no wonder VW love selling to us Aussies!

      I wonder if they will drop the V6 option here as well, I would imagine that it would be a top seller over the turbo 4's and diesels.

        Currently the TDI outsells the V6 by about 10:1 cutesy of the LCT!
