I love the shape of the Rocco, must admit I looked at a Golf R, and the boot is tiny, due to 4 wheel drive shenanagins! and just not a fan of the shape TBH, I looked at the Golf only because the dealer in Bristol had both the Rocco and golf in.

Also the Golf R price is prohibitive, I also got this for a steal!  £35k List........................

Nice choice dave  :happy2:  but sad to see another cayman go so soon..

Agree with some of your issues especially the nav but never had any issues with the seats and that's after some mammoth 5/6 hr joyrides when I first got her. Fuel consumptions an issue as it seems to drink it, but luckily it's just a evening and weekend toy for me which is what they are best used for.

Love he rocco r though, certainly the smartest Vw out at the moment but interesting to hear how much they have dropped in a year... Did you loose much on the cayman?

Gonna stick with mine a bit longer got a tubi exhaust on the way soon  :evilgrin:

The drive is totally different from the Cayman, but the lumbar support is a godsend, and nice to have RNS again, the Porker Satnag is awful to be truthful, and a £100 TomTom is a better bet,

Nice, best colour, their's not much point in having a cracking car and that leaves you in agony. Satnav's are a real wind-up, the BM wont let you put the full post code in, should have saved a grand and got a Tom Tom.

Enjoy  :happy2:

Crikey, I'm very surprised the Cayman S is gone but I do understand if you've got back troubles. Am afraid I have to say that your long-haired Sgt-Major needs court-martialling if she thinks any Porsche is "pretentious".

If it was me I think I'd be looking into getting some custom seats made - Anything to keep such a special car.
