Also just had the pleasure! It looks great, and really pleased with the colour (stone black).

Lovely and comfy, the DAB works a treat, easy to drive and great to pick up on 1/9!!

More thoughts and photos soon, but not just yet as don't want the neighbours to know how sad I am!

14 miles on the clock and counting....

Forgot to mention, What a result I've had.

I didn't order the Sat Nav as I thought it was too dear, but low & behold I've now got it (FREE) The sales guy did explain why, but unfortunately I didn't fully understand him. I think he was implying that there were a few cars pretty much ready to go that already had the sat nav installed, so I assume they only had to put in the extras I asked for, Sun roof etc. Maybe that's why My car arrived earlier than estimated

Not often I get something for nothing.
Anyone else get a free bee?

Me too! We picked up our 2011 T6 in Göteborg last Friday, and so far it has been exceptional. I'll post some detailed thoughts after I get a few kms on it, but so far we are really loving it!

Interesting. I placed my order on 13th August, tapping into a dealer order and was told I could make the spec what I wanted. I "specced it down" from the order they had in place. We shall see what happens but I will be very pleased with what I ordered, even more pleased if there are some freebies attached.

Funny you should say that because there's a corner near where I live that (for the life of me I don't know why) I can't seem to judge it well and often scuffed it with my old car. Guess I'll have to be more vigilant with the new one, those tire's look expensive.
