Picking up my R36 tomorrow.

[Lance B]

Hopefully picking up my R36 wagon in Candy White tomorrow, Thursday. I had a look at it yesterday after it was delivered to the dealer and even in "delivery guise" it looked great!

well done mate and congratulations - you will love it.

Partly, yes.

I certainly did when I test drove one.

I don't think I need to with the R36, do I? I will check with the Haldex distributor.

Thank you for alerting me to it, Gead.

Thanks, Jayse.

Just spoke to APR, the Australian distributor for the Haldex, and they said that the Haldex controller will give a similar benefit to the R36 as it did to the 3.2lt, so I will be putting the Haldex in the R36.

Thank you again for alerting me to this fact, Gead.

What options did it come with? I'm assuming to get it this quick it was in Oz/Syd already.

Cheers,

Jayse.

Only the auto tail gate and the sun roof. Actually, the sun roof is standard in the White Passat. I didn't really want any other extras.

It had just landed in Brisbane and apparently is the *first* 09 model to land here, so they shipped it down over the weekend.

LOL. I'm sure.
