Hi
I've just ordered a VW EOS 2.0 TDI DSG CARAT in Intense Black and Intense Red Nappa leather, with dual-xenon lights. Can't wait to drive it end July '07!!!
Will post picks a soon as I have it! I've started a thread in the Regional Section/Europe/France, so feel free to come and play Q&A's, share advice, comment, suggest! Have an EOS day!

Hi Eos3 and let me welcome you on behalf of the rest of the gang.

Do you ever get over to the UK?

Hope to be in the Dordogne next week mon brave. Island Grey, the car, snowy grey, moi. The weather must get better over there by then.

[eos3]

My EOS will be delivered last week of July!!!

Just on time for our vacation by the sea! Less than 2 month from order to shipment, I am happy!

Well.got my black one - yes, quite intense I suppose with cream leather interior, DSG Auto 2.0 TDI with Xenons whic turn corners and do a little jig as they set up, SatNav too which is pretty good and thats coming from someone who has three different sorts!! The critics, bless their cotton socks did rather lay into this but that's probably because it's obligatory to find SOMETHING wrong so let's pick on the 'Nav eh? Now I know this is a bit pretentious but I did get the 'Eos' luggage as well which does actually fit very snuggly in the space provided with a tad left over.Got other 'packs' too, in fact practically everything you can get except electric seats and thats because the critics said it was dead slow, mind you, they knocked the Satnav....

Hello Old Git,

Whereabouts in Ipswich are you? Did you receive one of our site flyers on your widscreen?

Many thanks,

Gavin

Not sure if it is just me but there seems to be a lot of Eos owners in Suffolk/Essex! Very strange. I feel a Eos convention coming on in our area! How about we all go down to Southend and have a good old cruise!

 

[Gavster]

Southend! Wicked - now that takes me back to my teenage boy racer years!

 

[ddlweb]

I definitely think you should all come down to my home town and visit!

 

[Gavster]

Count me in! Can drop the kids off at Adventure Island!

 

[old git]

Well, I am beside the river and yes, you stuck a flyer on my windscreen which I just managed to spot as I was entering a car wash!! Lots of interest in the car though, "Is that a Golf?" No, an EOS, "It's really nice".etc etc Most of the interest was when I took it France, waving, bibbing horns, shouts. The bit I like with the xenon lights is the little 'jig' they do when you start up, looks a bit space-shippy and as for going around corners - cool!!

 

[Gavster]

Oops sorry about that - perhaps I wont fold them up in future then.

Glad that you joined the club though!

 

[old git]

Well, we're a discerning lot around here you know, know a good thing when we see it!!

 

[Gavster]

Have you checked out the London to Brighton Eosathon? That's happening in August and will be great fun.

I put the flyer on your screen whilst I was waiting for my missus at the dentist.

 

[comet30]

Southend it is then! Just got to wait for the Eos to arrive!!!!!!!

Love that A120/A130? Can't remember which one, very straight from the A12 down into Canvey/Southend! No Police, no Traffic, awesome!

 

[Gavster]

The new A130 yes it is a quick road.
