Think I've finally decided on spec and options....anybthoughts?

[New2t6]

just about to order a new T6 150, DSG, T30, SWB KOMBI Highline
Black.
With these options-
leatherette seats
LMFSW(Highline spec)
LED lights
Rear camera
Bigger 80l fuel tank
Rear seats-2+1 passenger side
Extra door
Non sliding windows ?
Privacy glass
Better stereo
Comfort dash

Any thoughts?

I had thought of getting trendline to save a few £, as I think the recent changes mean LMFSW is standard on all models ?
My head is bursting with all the decisions, but you don't want to get it wrong.

All sounds very nice @New2t6 . when it comes to spec/extras it is so different for everyone, as we all have different needs and uses for our T6s
The LEDs are a great choice
comfort dash
rear slider windows , I will never open, so i may as well deleted as well.
As for sound you will do better with aftermarket I would say. plenty on the forum about that.
I think I may have read a couple of negative about the seats covering but not to sure on that's one. may be better going leather in the future .
I am sure some of the other guys/girls will have some wisdom for you.

There is a couple bits on the highline that you don't get on the trend line which is why I opted for highline, most importantly for me is air con, alarm system and heated front screen

If you plan to convert it into a camper at any time you may regret the additional door as it is restricting. If that's not your plan it's obviously not a problem.

Eventually a day van is the plan. No kitchen or anything fancy, just a bed for the odd overnighter.

I like the folding mirrors on my Touareg and would put them on my new T6 when I finally order it.

The folding mirrors are a great way of confirming the van is locked/alarmed from a distance, I rarely forget to lock it, but sometimes the key signal is weaker in certain areas of town and you think you've locked it after walking away and then spot the mirrors aren't tucked away.

Also, my Touareg has in-car wifi, it's fantastic for keeping the kids quiet on longer drives, they can YouTube on their iPads which is a massive bonus for keeping them occupied.
But, on the T6 Kombi I looked at the dealer didn't know if wifi was a feature on the factory nav, I found it under settings but it was greyed out. Does anybody know if that feature can be enabled?

Mirror do not auto fold on a T6 , they only work manually on the door switch. Euro 5 models can be coded but euro 6 can not. There is a box available to fit which makes the auto fold on the key with a euro 6 model . I am just installing one into mine (E6)

Didn't know that, won't bother with them then, thanks for saving me a few quid

You can still have them but you will need to do a little mod. to get them to auto fold. easy cheap job. Auto Electric Wing Mirrors
