Hi again vw forum.....

Another VW site for you to see, but this one's not live yet, so it's a sneak preview for you

It's currently at beta-stage of development. The site’s been worked on for the past 18 months by a very large team. It has some of the most advanced and progressive car-configuration features available online.

We’ve decided to open up the beta version of the site to a small and exclusive collection of special interest communities. It will not be shown to the usual mainstream sites until it’s fully ready.

We'll pass any comments back to Volkswagen UK who will use your community's feedback to finalise the development of the site – which is due to go ‘live’ in the next 2 weeks.

It would be great if you could take a look at the site, have a play with the features and let us know what you think.
If you would like to be sent the beta testing details (url, username and password) then please email me directly on chrism@outsideline.co.uk

If you'd like any additional information about the site or about Volkswagen UK then please feel free to ask within this thread or message me privately. I can't guarantee that I'll have the answers but I'm more than happy to try and find out for you.

Kind regards,

Chris

Hi chaps...

As it happens, the designers put the site live over the weekend. I'd still like to know what you think.

It's up at www.volkswagen.co.uk

once the flash player loads it's pretty smooth, but on the accessories page there isn't like a place to view them just the accessories home page

does the site not have all of the content it's supposed to yet?
