Hi All

Got my new Scout today, Metal Grey DSG Columbus Sat Nav.  Park Assist . 60 miles completed and very pleased with the colour, DSG, and build quality.

Not so pleased with lack of blind spot mirrors I've read the arguments for and against and I think its a step back, maybe able to get Retro Fit mirror?  

.

Very nice.

Very nice do like the colour very good

Yep, liking that...a lot!

Very nice, indeed!

Now that's what I've been waiting to see. Real owners pictures of Scouts.

Thanks for posting. Looks real nice.

Looks great im sure you will enjoy. Out of interest is it the 150 or 184. And what tyres was it supplied with?

Cheers,

Mark

Hi Mark. It's 180 all DSGs are 180 at the moment, tyres are Continentals.

I would have one but don't think I can stretch to the spec I want.

Enjoy your new ride Bill, post soon telling us more about what you think.

At the risk of being overly nosey, what kind of Continentals?

I like that.....have to say 184 TDI, DSG and 4x4 also a nice combo.

Still not entirely sure on the chrome bumper extensions but can see the look growing on me.

Can see some people now having a difficult decision over a 184 one of these and a vRS.

I think I would have given serious consideration to the Scout over the vRS if it has been out when I ordered... quite like the looks of it, far better than that Citroen Cactus thing anyway   .

It's still a toss up between this and a vRS, although I think the vRS will edge it on price alone, just think the combination of 184 Diesel and 4x4 would be a lot of fun!

Hopefully mine will be here soon then - I ordered it on the 12th of July

Hi Paddy

not sure on tyres,as I am on holiday at the moment and the Scouts parked up for a week , how sad. More reports when I get back, one thing I do know it was a dream on the motorway.

No problem and thank you in advance. Enjoy your break

Thanks m8, the 180 is the one I may go for next. Just have reservations about towing with the DSG. Keep us posted.

Cheers Mark

Scout have Euro6, but it using AdBlue for that or not... for the diesel engines?

As a lucky guy with access to wifes Mk2 FL Scout Tsi and a recent proud owner of a Mk3 Vrs Hatch Tdi, if the Scout had been avail I think I would have went for the Scout but still unsure of DSG but your car looks great hope you enjoy your new toy!

Great looking motor. If it's half as good as the previous scout, it's gonna be awesome!

Great to see real pictures of a new Scout and in the same colour I was thinking of too.   

Nice car. Not seen a MK3 scout before

I was wondering about this too, is there an adblue filler?

Also just wondering how you find the seat material, does it seem likely to last and be easy to clean?

Not sure about seat material Alacantra, time will tell.On my Mk11 Scout the seats looked as good as new after almost 5years .
