T6 Transporter - anyone here got one yet?

[An Marcach]

I'm about to order one for delivery in January and I'm wondering have any of you got one yet (I know they were released in the UK a small bit before they arrived here in Ireland) ?

If you have got one how do you like it?

I'm looking at the front wheel drive 180 bhp LWB one with the manual box and the Highline pack on it.

I reckon if I'm going to be in it for 40,000 kms / yr for at least the next 5 years I may as well the power and spec I want rather than settling for something else and knowing that I could have had the other one.

180 ordered for January delivery

I went with the manual box, preferred it

I ordered it yesterday

A mate of mine ordered one today but he went for the 140, not the 180

The Transporter drives way better than any of the alternatives in my opinion and if I'm going to spend at least 40,000 km per year in it I may as well have what I want

I know if I'd gone for one of the alternatives I'd have regretted it, I'd always have known I could have had the T6 but chose not to

All the dealerships here in Ireland have them, not the 180 ones though, so I assume all the UK dealers have plenty of them to play with.

This week over here they're advertising a 24 hour test drive if you want one so that's worth asking for too
