I didn't go for the panoramic roof but did consider it. I am trying to spend a little less on cars than I have in the past so didn't overdo the options. I have ordered the S Line Plus spec which comes very well appointed and only added a few additional options.

It won't arrive until end June...I'll post a few pics when it does.
Sounds really nice and as you say if the PCP mitigates the 'petrol' risk why not. The VAG unit is really torquey but you know that from your other cars so it should have plenty of mid range even in a heavier 4x4. Common sense not to overspec and I would go Manual in one of these as well unlikely the majority of owners.

Please put some pics up when it arrives, what colour did you go for?
