yes that was my impression as well

The residual values appear to be quite good as well.

The fuel consumption is not good overall, but no doubt it is abused as a press car. What sort of real life figures are people with the TDI quattro engine returning in comparison?

Best I have seen so far - on a 20 mile cross-country drive to work, with no air-con on...

Really positive review, looking forward to taking delivery more than ever now.

Same here. Two more weeks to go. Here's another positive review to shorten the wait:

Ah, that one made me smile as well, there's a follow up as well. Are you going to take delivery in August or delay registration and wait for a September 1 reg?

Hehe, yeah, gotta love that Bob fellow...
I'm sorry but I'm really just piggybacking on your excellent uk-based forum, lacking one here in Norway where I live. So this registration difference before/after Sept. 1st doesn't really make sense to me... ;-)

Sorry JayN, here in the UK we have new license plates issued twice a year, March 1 - August 31 and then Sept' 1 - Feb 28/29. So I am waiting to have the car registered until Sept' 1 to have the latest license plate. Hopefully it will add a little to the value when I trade the car in in the future or sell it.

Well.. that's the theory anyway.

I see. Don't think it works like that here. The focus is more on the model year, so if buying a new car around the time it changes, the "date line" so to speak, could warrant a short wait to get the newer model...
