Hi jwrx,

Mind PM me the price you sold the roc1.4? what mods installed?
Interested to know the price for a year end 2010 unit.

To those driving roc1.4, what is your driving experience?
Any regrets getting the roc 1.4 instead of Golf2.0/Roc2.0?
If yes/no, why?

Any roc owners with a baby?
Difficult getting the baby chair into the back?
Getting married soon, dun wanna regret getting a 2 door car and having to sell off so soon when the baby comes.
I know the 4 doors are more practical, so want some insight from those dads with 2 doors car.
The roc rear space look really small compared to golf.
The golf interior is surprisingly large, as comfy as the passat.

Thanks bro!

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for the feedback.

Carry lesser stuff is a real bummer and the raining part as well.

If only cars in MY are not so over priced compared to say, UK, GBP20k nia, life would be simpler.
Cheers!

Hi Guys,

Which dealer and salesperson is recommended?
Jln 222 service given is good?
1 lady said roc1.4 and golf 1.4 same handling. But 1 is 16" , the other is 17" rims. Should have power loss imo.

I am going for a test drive only. If buying, oso early next year only... already half year gone by.

Thanks.

it was a lady SA that told me golf 1.4 and roc 1.4 has the same handling......

will test both the roc and golf.

Btw SA told me mid june, new ruling for JPJ or is it Bank ( banks will determine the used car value ) coming out which might affect used car prices ( thus trade-in value )..any idea?
Did not ask the SA in detail earlier.

...at 10k km only, really?
all roc owners have this rattling problem?
for those driving MK 5/6, any rattling problems faced before?
stock condition, not those already autofoam'ed.

edit :
Hmm....it could be a lemon car.
I test drove the Roc1.4.
The torque and handling is good enough for me. ..uncle style driving nia.
NVH is good and pick up as good as the Passat I had driven previously. Coz lighter gua.
Only issue is the door is light and does not close with a solid sound and the trimmings used are not as good quality as the Passat.
When I knocked on the panels around the rear seats, it sounded rather hollow.
Hmmm...

Hi Guys,

I know colour is a very personal choice, but still gonna ask your opinions.

How many of you guys feel that a red VW looks nice?

Some people have said that red coloured cars normally, abit hard to find buyers when I want to sell it off later.

What do you think? I had not owned a red car before.
But I see many red cars with badly maintained paint that turns me off. This definitely affects the saleability of the car itself.

Red colours fades easily?

My white car, badly faded. back then I dun bother to maintain.
My black car, painstakingly maintained with regular wash and waxing etc....it is hard work but well worth it.
Red easy to maintain?

Did anyone had such experience with car dealers/direct buyers when you trade in your red coloured car?
I mean hard to find buyers etc.

I dun see a lot of buyers going for red.

Thanks for your inputs!!

Hi Bros,

Thanks for the reply.

I like tornado red but it is for GTi only.

Amaryllis red(metalic) , tornado red (solid) and flash red (solid) looks nicer than salsa red (solid).

To me, salsa red look dull compared to the others.

Do you guys think so too?

considering a red roc.
just concerned that if take the salsa red hard to sell off in future.
i asked a lot of dealers...very very few takers for the red.
mainly girls choose it.
not to mention the possibility of 1.4TSI issue creeping up in a few years***
( at least for me, coz on average, i use approx 12k to 14k km per year only )
if it is tornado red it'll look nicer....btw..Golf 1.4 now got tornado red but SA dunno if roc got new red colour next year.


just curious, how come uk have so many problems with 1.4TSI but MY no complaints highlighted in the forums arr?
***perhaps the prob starts after the 75k km service where you change the spark plugs?
so in MY none of the owners have yet to reach the 75k km service

OT
I was told Jetta CBU coming in Q4 and it's 1.4TSI engine, same as the Golf1.4, ckd dunno spec yet.
Anyone here plan to get the jetta?

Any idea the next batch (Mar2012) GTi SE got price increase?
Coz the current SE batch is loaded with approx rm20k++ stuff compared to the 2011 pre-SE version but sold at same price.
This was fully sold out and next shipment is Mar2012.

hope u guys dun mind me asking so much ya.

If do chipping, will it void warranty for parts?
Wats the costs?
