Title: Anyone got the new VW pickup its kinda metalic brownish?
Post by: clipperjay on 18 January 2012, 13:39

I saw one down our road the other day, anyone got one?
How much do they go for these days incidently?
The colour is nice would look good on a MK2 aswell?
They look like they have a second cabin in the back?

Aye thats the one!
I prefer the brownish one it looked more stylish and less bulky than in silver.
What prices are they going for?
I really like it hope its in diesel?  :grin: :cool:

Pretty sure you're wrong. Ground up developed by VW.

I'm confused.

Do you not have Google to find these tough to discover fact-nuggets like this?

Nice truck.  Big old bus, which will no doubt attract the usual 'doublecab w*nkers'.

Checked out an Aussie review of it - no low box on the Aussie one they were testing, which is something of an omission against the Hilux, but they were bowled over at how much better on the road the Amorak was.

I'd still have a T6 Rockton instead.

I normally do but,
Did not know the name of it which was provided by Jon at that stage!
The other was to find out if anyone actually on here is thinking about buying one or own one or driven it yet? 
Its like the Tourag it looked the part, sounded the part,...... drove like crap in all wheel drive mode? (shrug shoulders)
I like it for a work horse, but comfortable enough to go away long distances with the family and kids in tow!
 
I wanted a T6, but with the amount of heavy gear I carry, I prefer the family to sit seperately from work gear.
