Try using Photoshop to resize the pictures or if you don't have that, Google for something called The GiMP and look online for tutorials for scaling images.

Looking good though Sirius!

Tillykke! :-)

[Twinspark]

You lucky bastard :-)

My Roc was produced and shipped to DK same time as yours and I was promissed delivery prior to easter. But know the dealer has lost track of it, he dosent even know where it is or when it will arive!!

Can you take a couple of pics of the special danish Van features, mine vil also be delivered om "yellow plates".

[SilverChariot]

Nice! Like the white bonnet/roof and the blue detailing!Not sure about the white X on the door handle.

[Anakin]

Looking great, would love to take a few photos of a black and white on next to each other Darth and a Stormie

Tak for billederne, surt sjov du ikke nåede at få den, så vi må vente lidt endnu, forventer jeg får min i næste uge også.

Ser fedt ud med dobbelt bøjle, har også valgt den løsning. Har bedt forhandleren om ikke at klistre lastemærke på.

In english, looks great, finally a conversion to a real 2 seater sports car :-)

[Sirius]

Hej Twinspark
Har også frabedt mig klistermærker af enhver art, hvor I landet bor du ?? Er der et Dansk forum for R ejere ???

Sorry but this have to be in Danish

[Twinspark]

Hej Sirius,

jeg bor tæt på Århus, jeg gætter på du bor tættere på Ringsted (hvor du bygger bilerne om) da din allerede er nået frem til forhandleren.
Jeg er ikke stødt på et dansk R forum, vi er nok en forholdsvis lille klike. Men er vi nok må vi have startet en dansk R klub

[Sirius]

Hej Twinspark
Jeg bor i Ebeltoft, min er hentet hos VW på Grenåvej, den står i udstillingen her i Påsken, hvis du vil se den i real live :-)

Is that because It's then Classed as a Van and cheaper to Tax? I know some Danish R32 owners that do the same.

[Sirius]

Hi Anakin
Yes it is classed as a Van and the price is going from full tax to something like 50 % it depended on the car, my price goes from full = 94.500 euro to 58.400 euro
And in my eyes it is a 2 person car, so why not safe the money
Prices on cars in Denmark are simply out in the wood as we say

[Ibanez33]

Wow

I never knew back seats could be so expensive!

[Crossbone]

I never knew an R could be that expensive. Today my dealer launched the official R list price and it's 27.000 euros, VAT included. Isn't that cheap or what? And besides the xenon and the engine, you also get in standard winter pack, climatronic and multi-function steering wheel.

[Sirius]

Hi Crossbone
As I say, cars in Denmark is very expensive, the goverment earns 2.5 new cars when we buy 1 car, so if you say 100.000 euro for mine, the price will be around 28.000 euro
so we are close with the 2.5 tax :-( But there are many ways to see it, I`m not going hungry to bed, our money is just going another way round :-)

[Twinspark]

Hi Sirius,

gonna take a little trip to Ebeltoft on Sunday to have a look, havent seen one in real life yet. Mine has not arrived at VW in Hobro yet, wonder where they send it.

What kind of detailing have you ordered?

[Sirius]

Hi Twinspark

It is in Aarhus on Grenåvej. I`ve ordered something like Ditec protection, 3000 dkr- got it for 2000 dkr. ( 400 euro - 260 euro )
I`m not spending every Sunday washing and claying/wax my car, have work enough I think
But i read about NANO protection, does anybody now something about it, is it a long time product ???

[Sirius]

Hi

Finally I got it home , must wait to wash it for 7 days , got a paint protection, have been testing a little
it is amazing , got a little trouble getting my Mobil phone working, but now it works perfect .
