Looks super.

Estoril's are the best looking wheels IMO  :cool:

Thanks! It’s been a long wait! Originally told mid March for delivery.
I agonised over the estorils but yes they do look good.
Just hope the tech works as it should :wink:

Very jealous, still no date for mine but only been 4/5 months. Went with dolphin- but silver with Estorils looks great.

Be interesting to see any minor my22 diffs.

Any mods planned?

A reversing camera, if I do might have one retrofitted.

Looks great. Reflex would have been my choice for the CS45 if it was an option.

Love it, great spec you’ve chosen  :grin:

Would you mind checking or uploading a photo of the steering wheel?
Is the GTI logo on the wheel now red or silver from factory? I’ve seen a new MY22 Clubsport on Instagram and the logo was red, unsure if it’s had a sticker applied or not.

By way of comparison the “45” on my CS45 which was delivered a few weeks ago is still silver.

I think someone mentioned in these forums before that the earlier cars had the old font "GTI" logo on the steering wheel. Looks like they've fixed that.
