Interesting comment about the fog lights
"Another notable element is the GTI's front bumper. It adopts a black honeycomb lower section with optional five-element fog lights on each side"

I wonder why they would be optional?

I did think that at first but if the fog lights are a signature of the GTI whether we like it or not, there is no way they would be an option.

Did folk not get compensation paid out for that?

Think you’re right. Sure dealers offered different things in absence of the fogs. Caused quite a stir. Another great moment for Vw Uk.  :wink:
