    Question

    Hi There, I love those wheels as I saw them on a VW accessories youtube video a few weeks back. They'll look really nice on the white. I asked the dealer on the launch weekend as he said with that tyre and wheel option it would cost close to '$1k a corner', that price put me off.

    You said that you went for the TDI option, was that 1.6l or 2.0l and was it Comfortline or Highline ?

    I just visited one dealer so far, Austral in Newstead in the city, I'm looking to shop around, who did you purchase from ?

    Close to 27000..which was acceptable to me considering my very poor negotiating skills...

    Just a note out there to buyers, try and wait a bit before you order your Golfs, the first batch sent from Zwickau isn't of great quality, we have some of the first RHD ones... Try and get the ones built after Feb 2013... They had about 61 behind the scenes updates...

    I know two of them, they managed to stick in my mind. First one is regarding the structures behind the dashboard, near the steering column where they added an extra cross-brace member and the other one was regarding the primer used, apparently the Golf now has something like 8 coats of paint/primer whereas the 2012 models had just 6. The rest were to do with poor fitting door seals I think! I'll try and find the document and upload it...

    Was out today doing some serious tyre kicking and took a drive in the new 103TSI and I was impressed. It feels like a whole new car from the inside. I did notice a few Dec 12 builds, will be avoiding these.

    I was reasonably impressed with the first price offered. Standard kit plus paint for $33K drive away. Tossing up a couple of colour options with the dealer able to provide both within the next few weeks.

    So, if we're looking for a Mar 2013 build car, when would those be arriving in Australia?

    Would be nice to get that document Golf7...
