Congrats!
Sadly I cancelled my order as after 4 months the car had not been scheduled for build.
The dealer could not give a date for delivery nor my contact with VW uk!

Yes, really looking forward to it. Fingers crossed that it arrives with its software updated and I remember not to stick diesel in it.

LOL I've been crapping myself every time over that! Almost thirty years of oil burning for me!

Only had mine 4 weeks on Friday but eventually use to it now, I think I know my full way around with some little hints for things but it's a lovely ride even more on them country roads when it comes alive with them paddles. Only done 450 mile but had a couple of quick bursts but will wait till I get to that 1000 before I fully open it up.

I've had mine 8 days and I just hit 1,000 on the way home last night.  It's safe to say that I am enjoying the car!  :grin:
