It is legal, provided you have an engineers certificate...the system can't be driver/passenger controlled and the driver is not allowed to access the controls, it has to be self levelling, and set at a legal height. Which basically mean for the system to be legal, you can't enjoy airbag suspension the way you wan't to. The're always small work arounds for things like this though.
My engineer told me the only reason it's legal is for disability taxi's and medical transport vehicles (loading wheelchairs and the like).

Yup, the same as what they have on the Q7 as well. The height will be automatically controlled depending on the terrain or if you open the tailgate then you can manually control it (for better loading and unloading stuff)
Even if the air bags were legal, the width, offset, and tyres (not knowing what they are yet) , would most likely push it outside the legal tolerances. At least in vic it definitely would. But hey thats the price we all pay lol.
