Hi
I pick up my 09 CC GT 170 TDI tommorow :D
Its a bit of a change as I've been driving Toyota's for the last 12 years.

Excellent!
Well, don't keep us in suspense. What colour and options?

And welcome to the CC section, it's been a bit quiet in here. ;)

Hi
I've got a Black (blame the wife) its 09 from VW, Sat Nav, 6 CD and Front & Rear parking sensors. Not sure why you would order a 6 CD when you have the Multi Media Sat Nav unit, but hey I didn't order it. Think I will have Cruse Control fitted. I come from a Toyota Avensis 2.2lt 150bhp D4D tourer so thought the CC 140 needed a little more punch, so have had to lose a little equipment for the 170 engine.

Sounds good.
I'm jealous of the OEM parking sensors. The three things that my car doesn't have but I want are PDC, bluetooth and cruise.
I'm not going to fit cruise and bluetooth but parking sensors are going to be a bit of a pain. Might see if I can live without them.

Congrats on the car, look forward to some pics.:biggthump

I just posted a couple of pics but they haven't appeared for some reason. *Edit - there they are* Mine is "Iron Grey Metallic" but it's blue on one side and, if you walk around it, the car turns grey on the other? Must be pearlescent paint I guess?

I can't find them. :(
I can't see photos uploaded to photobucket either because I'm behind a Nazi corporate firewall here.:zx11:
I'll get a look when I get home in three weeks. :D I'm sure it looks great though.:bigok:

Hi Guys

Been away for a few days, Manchester to Morecombe 58mpg @ 70mph across 300 miles averaged 51mpg I'm well happy.:biglaugh:
The speed warning is good for those average speed cameras but could do with being louder or interupt the radio.
I wanted a grey one but got out voted 1-1 by the wife.

Hi, have you got Cruise Control?
I'm deffo getting it fitted to help with the average speed cameras. £150 fitted at my local dealer which is not too bad. :approve:
Although a car of this ilk should have it as standard.:rolleyes:
