Gave the GTD a good clean after seeing the GTI CS at the dealership over the weekend. Needed to get her mojo back !


:afro:

Bit the bullet and have just ordered a new R, complete poverty spec apart from gloss black mirrors. I am Scottish after all  :grin:
Excellent news  :cool:
It's well specced enough as is so you won't be missing out on much.  :smiley:
Manual I take it?

Ha ha that's true. I'd have loved the prets but just couldn't justify another £1k. Funny I also asked for the 90% tints but the chap told me VW are no longer offering it on the hatch? Is this true?

That's very true Exonian. No DSG this time for a change. Still think the clubsport looks better but couldn't stretch to it

I would definitely stretch to the Prets tbh, but then again its easier for me to say that, they're just a €130 option here!
