Traded it, collected it's replacement last night from Lookers VW; Mk7 GTI Carbon Grey, Pan sunroof. 

So far chuffed!

Congratulations. Enjoy
Mk6 GTI Carbon Grey, 2010 Bluetooth and voice fitted, a few VCDS mods still a comfortable family car. Red Scirocco 2011 twin charger stage 1 - enjoyable drive now gone.  White 2016 Polo GTI (roller skate on steroids) replaced with an Indium Grey 2019 7.5 GTI PP.

Got some new winter tyres fitted, to replace the previous six year old set.  The old ones seemed to have given up the ghost and offered very little grip, probably due to age and hardening of the rubber.  The new set is much better - I went for Goodyear UltraGrip 9s, which were just over £300 fitted from Blackcircles.

Exactly the same here, Summer mats only. Love the little touch of the embroided GTI when I get in the car.

Rotated wheels front to back and sorted out my front brakes which have been squealing slightly of late.

Still have yet to sort out my crazed rear light though  :whistle:

Detailed the car.
Started with a power wash/snow foam
Then used iron X
Then a de-tar
Then clayed
Washed again
Used Werkstatt Prime
Applied 3 coats of sealant
Waxed the wheels

Then realised I missed the exhaust trims which are filthy.
