Thanks,
My issue was resolved quickly and professionally, I'm happy with what they did for me. VW in Oz seems to be much better sorted from a customer-service perspective than in the US for some reason.

UPDATE 2:
Diagnosed as the turbo shaft broken. First thing like it that VW Aust has seen apparently. New entire turbo unit ordered and should be received and installed tomorrow.
Manufacturing fault is to blame.

UPDATE:
Great plumes of white smoke and loss of power after a 1 hr stint on the freeway.
Towed-in and diagnosed as a loose hose at the rear of the turbo. :(
I've got a loaner for a few days and the whole operation (inc towing) had me back on the road in under an hour. Can't complain about that...
Not necessarily the highest possible, but one that puts not too much drag on the trans. You don't want to slow down. Now I think of it, yeah, probably the highest possible (within reason)

you're 100% correct re resale, and I know about this stuff.
Whatever the spoiler cost would go a good way to a quality chip, which would actually improve everything about driving the car.
Each to their own though I guess.
I'll take function over form anyday.

mine are way darker than that.
HOWEVER.
consider that while the cops may leave you alone, your insurer could. COULD. deny a claim, claiming you had reduced visability...
