PS, when you vote, add a comment to bump the post up or it will get lost. Just a "voted" post will do, you don't need to tell me your spec, unless you want to :D

I've not voted as I've not ordered but if I did I suspect it would be 3dr DSG, prets, metallic paint, black mirror caps and that's about it. The only other option that would really interest me is the titanium exhaust and that's not been confirmed for UK and would very much be price dependent

Our other car is a Mk7 GTI DSG 5dr Tungsten, Vienna, Rear View Cam, Park assist.
