What have you done to your MK 7 today ?

[I wanted a GTi]

Went to get my wheels replaced and get my PS4's fitted but 2 wheels were marked during fitting so only got two fitted.

That must be annoying, are they sorting it out for you?

Yeah they have ordered new wheels no problem.

Fourth and first major service 2morrow. On my way to 39k miles after 2.5 yrs

Has the car required new discs or just the pads in that time?

Do they need a cambelt every 4 years like the mk5? I’m hoping not...

Not "what I did today" - but a few days ago - I did a deal to trade my MK7 R for a new 7.5. Got a good deal so I struck while the iron was hot  No estimate on build/delivery yet but I guess it'll be February.

What colour and spec did you go for Joe?

Indium grey.
5 door DSG.
Tech pack (this includes winter pack, Nav, rear camera, Light assist)
Keyless
DCC
Dynaudio
Leather
Prets.
90% tint.

Oh and remember my wheel alignment / tyre wear concerns? I had that checked out. 100% perfect they said. No adjustment required, they showed me the results and its all apparently bang on. Service guy said the wear I saw on that tyre is not unusual on a powerful car when the tyre gets down (or beyond) the limits, as mine was.... Anyway, no matter, I'll only have the car for another couple of months.

@JoeGTI - Is that a trade for an R? The best of luck with that. Will you be going for black mirror caps or sticking with the Alu?

Yep, trading the 152 R  Got a very good deal in the end, so pretty happy.

I've not asked for the black caps but I think what I might do is buy the black ones myself as accessories and swap them back and over as the mood takes me. The silver ones are way more expensive to buy aftermarket than the black ones. They're pretty easy to swap off as I know only too well

Nice spec Joe.  Hopefully not too long a wait.
