New from sunny Stoke on Trent

[Bryan1971]

Hi all,

Thought I would introduce myself, new to the forum world as well!

I am upgrading from my Sportline T5 to Highline T6, not sure if I am upgrading or down grading.

Some options I am not sure on is, wheels and suspension, I want it to look good but on the other hand I don’t want to compromise on the comfort, my thoughts were 18” then lowered to around 40-50mm, and I want to fit the sportline front spoiler or splitter not sure if you need both, but it looks a bit boxy compared to the old T5, any suggestions would be appreciated or photos on your projects


Spec as follows,

204 DSG

T32 (chose this one as its classed as full commercial for the BIK tax)

Indium grey

2 swivel single captain chairs

Led head lights

Twin electric doors

Electric tailgate

Folding mirrors

6.33 screen

App connect

Heated seats

Comfort dash

F & R sensors with camera (so the wife does not hit anything)

Carpet flooring

2v1 rear seats

Rear spoiler

Some would call it a keyring. I just think it looks that size against my pea-head.

Just found out, i could of saved £600 if i had placed the order with WV van centre in Cheltenham instead VW in Stoke
There is me thinking its all the same discounts from VW.
2 wheels just floated away in to thin air

welcome @Bryan1971 . Nice spec

 

[Bryan1971]

Thanks S Glass, thats a nice looking tub, looks sweet on the interior, is the steering wheel an easy add on? And i think i will be making a call the interior company in Shops that you used, not to far from me.

I agree Pukka, they were a bit boxy, now they look pretty good, i went for the SEL which has a good spec on, got bigger wheels (i should do a swop) than my van, whats all that about!

Lol Banj, this does look good, but keeping clean is another one, but i guess easier the black with those loverly swirls you get)

 

[Bryan1971]

Well got my new van now at last, now its time to alter the look of it

 

[StudleyGlass]

Looking good....you have a few transporters to choose from there by the looks of it

Welcome @Bryan1971 definitely not a downgrade from a T5.1 sportline to a T6 highline. Great spec you have and the best colour. Looking forward to more pics

Nice van, I need to stop seeing pictures of the comfort dash.
