No GTI has DCC as standard. But that one actually does have it. It's the "MODE" button to the top left...

It is a PP. The front brake calipers...
The mode button doesn't indicate it has DCC.

I know. But generally speaking it does. In Ireland the R comes with Driver profile select, which gives you that mode button without the suspension settings option. Irish GTI's don't have this at all. Of course I forgot, I think UK GTI's do get the mode button regardless? In used Irish GTI's though if you see the mode button 9/10 it has DCC.

The aforementioned red badges on the grill and tail are very easily retrofitted to a non PP. But again it'd be rare. Few would bother.
UK GTI's all have the mode button

Thanks all!

I noticed that the Co2 is 148 g/km on standard car and 149 g/km on PP for a DSG, so good way to double check with DVLA!

I don't think this one does have DCC after all!

It's far from a 'must have' option, especially with 18'' wheels, so I wouldn't worry about it unduly :smiley:

Mine's on 19s without DCC and it's very good. PP is good to have though, you'll never regret having great brakes!

It was a must for me, I run 18" wheels and the comfort mode setting is sublime, I proberbly have it in that 75% of the time - as we all know options are very subjective, everyone has there own preferences

I hope you matched them up at the earliest opportunity, that would have irritated me no end.
