What would you do ??
« on: October 03, 2010, 12:39:07 pm »
Please be serious, and any comments as to why be much appreciated.  :smiley:

BOTH WITH FULL AIRCON, HEATED SEATS......PLEASE NOTE THESE ARE STANDARD LEATHER SEATS....NOT GOT THE GTI HUGGING FACTOR!

It's close, seems to be failrly splitt between manual and DSG.

If I upgraded the DSG and added the paddle shift guys, would this make the DSG a far more appealing model??

Ive got leather .... meh... It's not all that... Easy to add seats, not so easy to change the transmission.

.... x 2

As I would never consider buying a car without DSG or its equivalent nor one with leather seats, it's a no-brainer for me.

DSG is for people with no brains? I'd have to agree with that!  :grin:
