ORDERING NEW MK6 TOMORROW
« on: 23 August 2010, 18:43 »
I'm hopefully ordering 2.0 tsi dsg 5dr,candy white,18" monzas,RCD 510,Dynaudio,assist + cam,flat tyre indicator,winter pack,xenon headlights,jacara cloth  in the morning(pending p/x and vw solutions deal) Wasn't sure about leather..electric seats were appealing though! VW priced fixed but dealler still unsure about new VAT rate...will VW honour existing rate on an early order?
DAB ariel? why doesn't it work with rear cam? Is RNS510 digital? (thinkg of replacing after).

Any views? :undecided:

Get Shadow Blue (the best colour by far IMO) + Luxury Pack + ACC (my favourite option) in addition to above. Ditch the flat tyre indicator. I hear it needs re-setting by VW after you have a flat. Cloth is excellent, the 'leather' is only part-leather.

The rear cam does not give you a clear view of the nearside kerb when parking. Also folding mirrors help from them being knocked and broken off by other cars. They cost a fortune to replace. Ditch the cam and get the Luxury Pack or get them both.

Oh and regarding Park Assist. Learn to park!

Oh and also... get (a) RCD510+DAB+Dynaudio and then get a TomTom. (Ugh!). Or (b) Get the standard RCD310 with standard speakers and then upgrade to RNS510. No DAB unfortunately and no Dynaudio. Expensive to retro-fit the latter. Or (c) Order RNS510+Dynaudio from factory and pay a fortune!

I went for (b) 'cause I'm a cheapskate!

Also, don't forget the VW Premium Bluetooth preperation. Brilliant.

But in all cases you will need a sub-woofer to improve the sound. :smiley:

Glad I might have helped a bit and confused you a bit more! :grin:

My mk 5 came with electric mirrors(although its an import) but no kerb side feature. Does mk6 only come with luxury pack?
