vindaloo Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Hi guys, my first post just ordered my 3-door R32 for May delivery. I've specified a non-smoker package, can you guys confirm that you still get the 12V accessory socket? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TP27 Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 No, don't think so. That's what's removed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vindaloo Posted January 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Really, surely they just remove the lighter & leave you with a bung. Can't believe they leave the 12V out, what about portable Sat-Nav power, phone charger et al? I'm not doubting your knowledge just shocked. Can any MkV owner comment, please? If it's missing I'll have to change my order (again) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TP27 Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 I may be wrong but I think you just get a dummy cigarette lighter instead with no 12V socket...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raymocrjd Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 The picture in the gallery looks like a 12V socket with no ashtray, I wouldn't say VW would be daft enough to remove the socket what with all gadgets these days using lighter sockets.

rs32 Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 mine does have the 12V socket, with a rubber mat in the base of the ashtray holder instead of the ashtray unit itself. stops the coins rattling about !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xscreamsuk Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 I asked my dealer this exact question, and was told the no smoker still comes with a 12V socket, and plastic blanking plug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AGK512 Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Was this on the optionslist you saw then ? I dont remember seeing it when I 'ordered' mine in Nov ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xscreamsuk Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 It's in the price list I was given. the smoker pack I think was a no cost option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scillyisles Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Yep I have no smoker pack in mine you still get the ashtray like tray with a mat covering in the bottom -it also includes a 12v socket protected by a cap on top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AGK512 Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Are there any other no cost options then not on the 'normal' options list ? Apart from the sales staff remembering to offer them how are 1st time vw buyers supposed to know they exist ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] don't recall being taken through any such list when ordering. just glad for the threads on TSN to get some advance info before signing the order form Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AGK512 Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 I've just found a copy of the 'dealers' options list and have seen on it a 'smoking' pack. Which would suggest as standard the golf is a non smoker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgt Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 I checked this yesterday and VW confirmed that standard is non smoking - you have to specify smoking option if you want ash trays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njc851 Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 I wasn't asked if i wanted them, bit poor really, I don't want them, but they don't know that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
