looks lovely as ever. You do choose good specs on your motors! :cool:
-
very nice, i like that colour.
whats it like performance wise? as i imagine it will be quite a bit heavier than that golf with that engine.
-
I think its 7.8 0-62 and 144 mph ish..
-
no slouch then :cool:
-
BONUS - no dash top vent to rattle :grin:

She must be a hair dresser your missus doc!!!
Why oh why didnt she get the dsg installed so she can do her lippy and hair like most women do whilst driving to work!! :grin:
-
Very nice Doc. :cool:
I like the 18" Chicagos and the leather is much better than the standard seat trim.
Mind you don't you think that VW are a bit tight wanting to charge for dual zone climate control on roughly a £26,000+ car.
-
bring back the R32..... :undecided:

Close she's a police officer!

If I could of I would of! You can't get DSG STILL - only in the 3.2!

Agreed but it's only £395 on the eos not £695 as on Golf - why I don't know!

NO! I want an R36 - GOLF

looks like a nice car u got yourself, bit girly looking tho and there are too many creases when the roof is up.
id have gone for the A4 convertible where a 2 litre turbo would be about £28k. but i can understand if a soft top aint your thing.
-
not my car hence " The Missus EOS has been delivered!"

Thanks for your input - needed a steel roof plus we have a few friends with the Audi A4 Cabs and they seem to have one problem after another AND loads of squeeks.
PLUS the EOS is a far better drive than the A4 - but hey ho we all have our preferences!
-
i think they look a bit more svelt than an A4 cab, i wouldnt be ashamed driving one thats for sure
-
It looks best with the windows down and roof up imho...
-
show me! :evil:
-
Its too dark!
I'll take a pick in the morn!
-
I took some but it was raining so I rushed and fecked em up! :sad:
I'll take some more when its sunny and replace 'em... But for now:
PS the rear windows go all the way down - I was rushing!

sounds pretty well justified to me. I really like this car, perhaps would look good a touch lower but otherwise its spot on!

Agreed with the height, but the ride is so sweet I just couldn't do it!
Imagine what the standard on must look like - BIGFOOT the EOS :grin:

cant argue with that i spose. have to say the Eos does look good from most angles. i think the fact that its 5 piece means u see more lines when its up but i spose it makes it work better.

Plus the roof panel houses a glass sunfoof that you can open with the roof up :wink:
