Had a phone call from VW to tell me that a new alloy has arrived and is undamaged!!
Booked in to get fitted on Saturday :smiley:

Great news! Now hopefully you can put it all behind you :smiley: (Assuming it's your rear offside  :whistle: :laugh:).

Yippeeeeeeee hope all goes well and they don't fail you at the last hurdle  :whistle:
I've got very little faith in anything these days but lets be honest, a scratched alloy is completely irrelevant after the events in my hometown this week :sad:

I've been offered a new car because of all the problems with my car, it has to be a GTD so I have told them that I will take the weekend to think about it. Now do I let them try fix it or re order another one :rolleyes:

IMO that's a no brainer, can't you put some cash down and get a GTI?

No I can't, they said it has to be a GTD and all I pay for is the options I want to add to the spec.

If its that bad then you should definitely go for the new car

I have until next week to let them know what I want to do. I think if I was ordering a new one I'd go for 3 door, 19's, DSG and traffic assist but I'm not too sure on the colour, possible oryx white or tungsten silver.

What do you think of White Silver? I went for Pure White because it was a safe option as there weren't any White Silver cars in the country when I put my order in. I would have gone for Oryx if I could have stretched my budget though so Oryx gets my vote.

You can't go wrong with either. Never been a fan of white cars until I saw a Oryx White CS a few weeks back.
Get that and vinyl wrap the roof black and you've got one gorgeous car :drool:
