That`s what I said to myself.
it is a bit of a rip off
1 thing is good about sicking it on is that you can always go back to the OEM colour no need to paint it again But need to pay for the government colour change again.
to painted the car inside and out it only cost 18000, for cheaper 1s it about 13000
I think ins down to the man power not the material.

exciting! we actually went to vw in kln bay and looked at the sharan and toureg yesterday. the sharan has an integrated child seat, so practical. priced above previa and much lower than the x5 but the 3rd row is actually usable.

Keith-san - not sure it can be used for biz but as a family car, it looks good.

For the F10, needs to take out two front side mirrors and two interior door trim for the rear doors. total 14 pieces.
That's a heck of a job. 8 hrs.

Wait to see your car in person. Got to be really sick.

Where's that? A F10 owner asked a new wrap shop called Colours Concept, 20K+ for the job. They use Mactac vinyl and claimed to be one of the best material in the business. Tones of color to choose. Matte or gloss. Green, white, yellow, black, orange and whatever you like.

I saw the Sharan 2 months ago at WC showroom and the sale guy say there is not test drive yet.
The 7 seater is very nice and about same price as the Toyota Previa high end models ( http://www.toyotaprevia.com.hk/index_eng.html )
it also has the same gear box as GTi which I like a lot.
The over all car is very nice and usable and quite powerful too.

It also has the golf chasis, sales said it drives better than the previa. I think it's also safer than the previa since all the seat belts r anchored to the chasis or body rather than the seat. All 5 seats at the back have isofix points. But in terms of looks, previa is better and the interia layout somehow is more pleasing.

I must test drive this to test the golf chasis out.

It appears the salesperson told me the waiting time is 6 months to 9 months ...
I guess it's easier to keep a Toyota Previa than a VW 7 seaters, also the same for letting it go ...
