|  added extras for vrs Morning everyone, Well, I had a test drive at the weekend and following my first post I think the TFSI is definitley the one for me. So, having decided on the estate and colour (blue or silver) the next question is what options to try and get as I'm getting a used one. My current list in priority order is: - climate control - rear electric windows - reverse parking sensors - maxidot - xenons Would be grateful for any thoughts from current owners!  Cheers. |

| Re: added extras for vrs Coming from a lower spec'd Megane II, and driving a VRS TDI I can't but approve your list. - The climate control is great for comfort, as well as rear power windows. - I'd like to calibrate the reverse parking sensors in order to beep at maximum when really near the back wall/car bumper. - Maxidot is nice. - Xenons are great, not really different from good sunlight Stefano |

| Re: added extras for vrs If thats the tfsi vrs, you get climate and rear electric windows free as part of the bundle. Also take a look at the sunset glass, very chic and useful Billy

| Re: added extras for vrs Difficult decision. I'd do a point list and see what really "floats your boat". For me I could do without rear electric windows and rear parking sensors are not a 100% must for me. Xenons and climate would be further up my list, along with maxidot. Having and L&K I get all that anyway, but if I had to take away 2 things it would be rear leccys as we normally travel two up, and the rear sensors are not essential.

| Re: added extras for vrs 18" wheels are free upgrades at the moment. I'd also vote for Privacy/Sunset glass on the Estate.

| Re: added extras for vrs Id also think about the auto wipers and auto lights i think they are great. Xenons look good and give better light but a set of night breakers in there narrows the differnce. I found when I bought mine 2nd hand that Xenons made a huge difference in price. Steve
