Marto303 Posted June 23, 2013 Posted June 23, 2013 It's time to upgrade Mrs H's car again, now she's always wanted a convertible and I prefer these new convertible coupe style cars so the VW EOS has taken her fancy. That roof looks very complicated and I wondered if anyone here has any experience of these cars, bad or good! Quote
WINGNUT Posted June 23, 2013 Posted June 23, 2013 No but my old service manager worked at VW and said they were a nightmare for letting water in! How true? not sure myself Quote
User0083 Posted June 23, 2013 Posted June 23, 2013 My WO at work has one, I've been in it a few times, seems ok and she's never said anything bad about it. However, I have heard of many issues with metal folding roofs and I've noticed a lot of manufactures have reverted back to cloth tops. I've heard handling changes massively with folding tops and they take up a lot of boot space. Quote
User0083 Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 Marto, spoke to the owner at work, she has a 2007 model, ex demo, got it 2008 with 6,000 miles, now it has 80,000 miles and she said it's never leaked, never had an issues and as a military person engaged to a military person other side if the country she does a lot of motorway miles. In the summer, roof down at 65mph it's fine, hit about 85mph and it gets a bit windy. Petrols's great, 2.0 FSI is here model. Her fiancé had a Z3 and last year changed it for a "sportier version" of the EOS, in black. All good reviews from her. HTH Quote
