Hi all,

I bought my GTD through VWFS - personal lease.
After weeks and weeks of discussions between the dealer, VWUK and VWFS, I finally got my payment yesterday.

I hate to disappoint some forum users .... but I received £1000. I wonder if this was extra goodwill from the dealer ?

An old thread but was looking for an answer on this

We have a 2017 7.5 non PP GTI

Build March 17, registered April 17

No front fog lights - I’ve not seen another without them. Our neighbour has a 67 reg and has fog lights

Always wondered why ours didn’t have them!

I think ours must be an early mk7.5

I prefer it without the fog lights but interested to know the story behind them

I think the front fog lights were omitted in error on some of the first batch of mk7.5 GTI’s (and GTD’s maybe as well). It may well be confirmed somewhere in the 20 pages of this discussion thread that is the reason for the absence of front fogs (i.e. the cars were mis-built). First owners did receive monetary compensation for not getting fog lights - I don’t know if this was automatic or if it was only paid if owners complained to dealers / VW.
