Lucky you Iain, mine's not even got a build week, despite the order going through on the 9th April

I bet you're BW34 or 35.  9th Apr is too early to be later than this unless something happened to delay your order.

Wheels look great with the Carbon too They deifinitely a feature.

Shame we do not get the red calipers here and does not even look like they are painted grey, though things might change a little once the flow of GTI/GTD increases from these first ones off the boat.

GTD is readily reviewed against the GTI, mainly in line with preference but a review of a direct or very near (little cheaper) rival

Stacks up quite poorly really when consider more power and torque, yet slower and by all accounts far less refined. Also worse MPG and Emissions.

This GTD engine in the GTI suit is going to be very hard to beat in direct comparison to any sport diesel out there.

Do not remember seeing this one but a well balanced review that gives full kudos to the GTI but without using it as a stick to beat the GTD with

I ordered keyless entry after the initial order (about 4 weeks after) and yes Bill, the dealer is telling me week 34/35.

Well that's unofficial Bill! Would like an earlier build week if possible, but looking forward to the Autumn
