Re: No 1.5tsi

Can only assume this is demand outstripping supply , so close the orders rather than tell people they have a 9 month wait. Our dealer has said ours should be here early next month (ordered in March)

Re: Tow bar

Re: Tow bar

Not a problem - we like the thule velo compact 927 having seen it locally, shrinks down a bit for storage. Does need a 13 to 7 pin adaptor though, although those are cheap (c £20).

Re: Tow bar

Hi! New to the forum and looking forward to getting our Karoq Edition 1.5 DSG in Business Grey in June! We have specced the towbar for our car in order to carry a triple bike rack.
