In 6 sleeps time and at 9.30am...trying to keep myself busy so time just breezes past  :grin:

9:30am? You ba$tard!

When I collected the MK6 I didn't collect till 11am and felt that was far to late  :grin: so I said to my dealer at the time of ordering that I wanted a early collection time. 9.30am was the earliest I could get there...

I would have arranged to collect earlier but they have other handovers in the morning. I'm also not going to have time to get my exhaust fitted because I'm busy in the afternoon and rest of the week. On a plus side the GTi rear trim is only £77 from the dealer.

FYI

The Mk7.5 GTI is the April edition of Evo magazine.

"best all round hatch"

And they recommend DCC with 19" wheels
Now = 2011 MK6 GTI - Reflex Silver
Past = 2006 MK5 GTI - Tornado Red and Solid Black

That's good to know, when do the issues get released?

Wondering if anyone has had any quotes from main dealers and what level of discount is being offered. VW Ireland have bumped up prices for 7.5 by over 5 % . I was offered a 2.25% discount off list for a well speced car - won't be doing a deal at that discount

Was that direct from the dealer? I got just under 13% with £1000 VW contribution from Carwow, through a dealer. 12 week build time  :sad:

Yes that was from a dealer, took the best part of a week to get there. Mine is being built week commencing 3rd April. So ETA will be around 10 weeks from order date.
