Looks like the Accelerator pedal is no longer floor mounted?

I don't like the pedal setup in the MK5/6 because the Accelerator pedal is shallower than the brake pedal.

That's correct. Not floor mounted

I'm used to the floor mounted accelerator pedal, but when I was out on my extended test drive in the GTD demo, the accelerator pedal travel felt natural. When I got back into my Scirocco, for the journey home, the floor mounted accelerator felt ridiculously stiff (until the next journey), much like trying to press the brake pedal down on a car where the servo assistance has failed.
Whey ya bugger! It's finally arrived after an 8 month wait....

My previous cars have had pedals at equal height with respect to each other. It doesn't feel as natural for foot movement with the floor mounted variety.

I'm glad they have changed it.

Yes dippy, rear view camera is all there, but I couldn't activate it as the car was still in transport mode, but I could see it under the badge.
