Hi All,

I'm a new member of the forum. I'm looking at a VW van for my business. I didn't think it would be so complicated!

Having looked at Vito's, Renault, Citroen, Fiat and Hyundai, I think I've settled on a SWB Transporter Crewcab with 4Motion. One I've been offered is in stock at VW and has a heap of options (locking diff, comfort seats, second battery, alloy wheels, full airbag package, fog lights and a couple of other things I can't quite remember). I've also looked at a Caddy Life that had about $8k worth of options!

I'm just a bit puzzled as to why a lot of the cars in stock seem to have so many options. I'm going to delete the alloys since it's a work hack but add a towbar and paring sensors.

I've been told the 'tow pack' is $1800 because it includes all the wiring. I would have thought by now there would be a plug in the rear loom and the tow pack would add a half metre piece of cable to connect to that plug. Can anybody comment on that price please?

Also having done a lot of research it seems that other markets get the locking diff as standard but we have to pay $1100 for it.

Regards,

Jamie
