Didn't realise until a recent thread that my May this year GTI didn't come with a service book as it's now all electronic.

So, purchased a new blank genuine book off the 'bay for just a fiver, and it arrived today. Took a photo of the type plate sticker in the user manual that came with the car, and a little bit of Photoshop later, voila !

I know it's not strictly needed, but I do like having a printed service record book, and whilst it's not had it's first service yet, thought now was the time to get it. Will get the dealer to stamp the book, which I know from past experience will be no issue.






You'll be looking for double din cassette player to fit next next!!  :grin:

already tried my 1986 Kenwood APSS Dolby Digital unit with auto reverse, but it doesn't fit  ;D ;D

(for those that are too young to know what a cassette player was, google is your friend  :D )

added some tat


I have something very similar on my car, made by leyo. I think they add a little more interest to the cabin.
Same here, got these on mine (they look like the Leyo ones to me).  The pictures don't do them justice, they are high quality items and make the interior feel less Golf TSI and more Golf GTI.  Not to everyone's taste of course but that's great thing about life.  :wink:

It’s funny how views differ on these so wildly, I’ve never seen them in the flesh but they remind me of the ever popular Audi 12v socket covers, just a bit bigger in scale.

They look great in the flesh and do go well with the Audi 12v cover. Mine are the Leyo Motorsport ones. Very well made and feel really good being solid metal. I'm sure not to everyone's taste but I'm happy.  :smiley:

No comment on the 'bling', but get that power/volume knob the right way round.

Rule #14 "The logo on the power/volume knob should always be in the vertical position. Under no circumstances should the knob deviate from this position. Volume must only be adjusted using the buttons on the steering wheel. In the event of a mindless passenger trying to take control of the volume controls, instant correction must be carried out and the volume re-adjusted using the correct method. The passenger must then be made to understand in importance of this rule."

Absolutely  :laugh:

I thought the vehicle had to be stopped as soon as is safe to do so and the passenger asked to leave??

That’s too polite. How about tied to the nearest lamp post and shot !!

I'll be honest I don't spend any time looking at the volume knob when driving the R. I guess with the lower performance of the GTI you have plenty of time to take these things in  :tongue:
