Hi all,
Ordered a candy white Move Up! Bluemotion today. No extras at all.

Basic run around for the household and cannot wait for it to arrive.

After driving Porsches for years, Volvo p1800 and loads of classics, I am stepping out of my daily driver Isuzu Trooper into the Up!

Bring on that fuel consumption!

Well, it had to happen!!
Once we got home, started playing with the configurator, espcially the german one for the images - we think a change to the High up! might suit us (me!) better - those toys are just too tempting!



I have until Friday to finalise. Thinking...



High up! - Candy White with Pearl Black ash and Anthracite cloth.

Spare wheel & sound pack.



It's less than £20 a month more than the basic Move up! bluemotion.



The VW Germany website shows the two tone cloths and the cornslik under dash and door cards as very light, maybe too light to keep clean? Has anyone got any real pictures??

We had a dark blue N Beetle with a cream interior and it really isn't difficult to keep clean!

Unless you have either loads of kids or loads of dogs!

And it really does make a difference to the brightness of the interior.

I used the above site to look at the interior pictures.

if youre worried about keeping it clean, especially the seats, you might want to think about the autoglym treatment if youre dealer offers it

very exciting that youve decided to upgrade your choice... the toys are just too tempting arent they!
i went for the sound pack and wheel extra too, altho i also went for the sunroof too

I actually have an autoglym treatment pack at home which I was given a few years ago, I'll use that no matter what.

And yes, the toys are just so tempting!
Basically it's £40 a month between the Take up! and the above spec. Okay, it's a tank of fuel (and more) a month and it's this whole eco-minimal driving experience we decided to try.

Then, we started looking at the toys.

I love those toys!!

the autoglym thing isnt just the pack they give you with all the shampoos etc, they treat the upholstery the paintwork and windows and guarentee it too so there wont be any stains etc

 

[willowaz]

and yes i was origionally going for the more basic up and thought no, ill go for the high up!

Hi and welcome

I have family in the valet and bodyshop business - the actual pack that Autoglym supply to dealers (not available to the public) does not contain an awful lot. Warranty aspects aside.

With a little hard work, anyone can protect their car to a better specification.

 

[willowaz]

ah i see what you mean now... thats brilliant, save yourself some money too by doing it yourself! hehe

 

[911sse]

And a mini workout included!

 

[willowaz]

haha! exactly.... i think im gonna be super fit when i get mine, wont want to stop cleaning it so it looks perfect

Recieved an email today. The High up! should arrive around the end of May.

Our car is at the garage awaiting delivery, we get the paperwork through and I again remind VW finance that my partner is still on her provisional, test booked for 9th June. Now they say the car cannot be released until she has a full licence. Nothing like added pressure now! Bit miffed as I would put it in my name but I want to buy a car soon and I have a few buy to lets, so its always a challenge.
