Want a VW Multivan...don't want to pay for it!

[Babalouie]

wow seems exy

why not get an odessey?

Odyssey can only fit the baby seats in the middle row, and so it seemed a hassle to unplug the seats to have to get someone into the back. And I have 3 baby seats to accommodate so it would have been difficult to get the middle kid in place. VW can be configd with the middle seats facing backwards and slid fwd so that leaves stacks of room for walking in and loading the bubs.

Surprisingly, the new 'Rago was the same....if you have 3 baby seats they gotta go in the middle row which is nuts if you still need to use the back row. The only other option was the Dodge Voyager, which could take the kiddy seats in the back row.

prophylactics ftw.

prophylactics ftw.

Now you tell me

[itsnotagsr]

I got one of these on order, 2.5TDi 6spd DSG, Hi-Line, black metallic :D

Drove one of these back in 2000 for three weeks. Absolutely great van. There were actually fights to see who could get the keys

[jesus]

you need a sandman!

[Cookiemonster]

Multivan would be great but why can't you get 4wd with the auto!?

sandmans are only good in the conception phase

Voyagers are never an option

Our kids are spaced apart and I'm thinking they'll continue to have a 2 to 3 yr gap... once they are toddlers they can use those slot in booster seats that don't need an anchor point.

Yeah too late for that...

Mine are 2.5yrs old twins and #3 is born in a few mths, so I have 2 x baby seat and 1 x capsule combo for at least the next 18mths I reckon before I can use the non-strapped booster seat.

so...you wanna sell it at 50% in 3 years?
By the way why that spec?

[TonyJZX]

are these anything like the Sportline turbo diesel nutter you see on 5th Gear/Top Gear???

[10sec rx7]

we towed the RB30 200sx to melb behind one of the turbo diesel ones.

towed awesome, fit heaps of spares in,

just fucking exy to buy!

Yeah same thing, 'cept I didn't order the sport suspension pack. I think the euro-spec "Sportline" is basically a combo of the 128kw TDi and the sports suspension. In Oz we get the big donk as std anyway and the sports suspension is optional.

Yeah I reckon 50% might actually be a pretty generous offer once it out of w'ty :D It's 2.5 TDi 6spd DSG, metallic black, leather, electric sliding doors, sat nav and 17in wheels.

[TonyJZX]

$30k will get you a 3 yr old voyager no probs.

Get the chip for the TDi!

Get the chip for the TDi!

I've already looked into that there's a tuner in Holland who's said that they're reflash my ecu and I don't have to pay unless I'm satisfied....I have to do without the ecu for a week tho...
