OK, so have covered just over 300 miles in the car so far, brief initial impressions so far :
1) It's quite quick! But a fairly uneventful experience, largely down to feeling somewhat strangled by the GPF.
2) I'm struggling to find the optimum seat/steering wheel position, it feels like the seat base could be longer and at more of an angle so my whole leg would set on the base, anyone else finding this difficult? (Didn't struggle with this in last 3 Mk7 Golf's)
4) There seems to be a quite a lot of vertical body movement, even when DCC is in the stiffest setting, car doesn't feel very 'tied down' almost to the point it's quite disconcerting, could it be tyre pressures? (They are set to the 2 person+luggage pressures) or, is there such a thing as the suspension bedding in? P.S, yes, the suspension pucks have been removed.
3) Interior quality, sorry, it's a backward move from a Mk7, I've had 3 Mk7 Golf's, so known them quite well! In my opinion, they were the best iteration of Golf, give me my Ed40 with Recaro buckets back anyday!
