New Van Ordered Today

[bobby69]

hi all ordered new van to replace my 2014 t5 140 4motion
The replacement is
Factory order t6 204 dsg 4motion highline penal van
Iridium grey
Single front passenger seat
Heated seats
Front and rear parking sensors with rear view camera
Power folding mirrors
Tailgate
Discovery media nav
Ply lining
Vw lowered suspension
Sportline front and rear spoilers
Vw black side rails

Not order wheels as I have t6 sportlines on the t5 and fancy something different
Cant decide 19 or 20 inch wheels any photos with either of these with vw springs fitted would be appreciated

Welcome Bobby, Nice spec van.

Are you going to spec the diff lock?

I have a 2014 4mo like yours and was looking to get into a T6 not too dissimilar to the one you have on order. The cost to change was a little bit too rich for me so I kept the 2014 and bought a cheaper van for work.

No no diff lock don’t think i will ever take it off road

Yes I agree the prices are eye watering for what in reality is a work van
My current van is a 140 and I’ve had it mapped to 176 and is now how I think it should have been from the factory
So fancied the highest bhp this time also regretted not getting dsg last time
That been said the deal I was offered was to good not to take a bit of a no brainier
Only problem having to wait upto 4 months for delivery

What is a penal van?
1. A van that leaves you doing porridge for ever more?
2. A gentleman’s extension?

You may not have to wait that long, I ordered mine at the end of September and it’s on the boat to the UK as we speak.

I still haven’t came to terms with paying £20k for my 16 plate manual 180 Highline PV with 29k on it. Don’t think I ever will. The money these command is crazy but when I compare it to my 16 plate work transit it makes a little sense...

Great spec
There are a few things you have got that I would have liked but I had to stop somewhere

I know what you mean when I had finished the spec on my van I’m glad I was sat down when the salesman gave me the final price

I get a 20% discount from Volkswagen commercial so I went a bit crazy with the options!

 

[bobby69]

I only managed 11% but it helped a bit
