Its what they are not doing - typically only around 45 minutes will be allocated for a new car prep.

Unfortunately 45 minutes is enough time for the damage to be done with their conveyor belt gritty rag approach, nicely dulling your new car's fresh paint.

Thanks for all the nice comments , I feel a bit of a fool , one minute hating the colour then loving it,but after picking it up it looked a dull as dishwater & not like a £35k car ,God only knows what goes on during a PDI , But I know one thing I'll never let them perp my car again,when I had 2014 gti in for some warranty work the red calipers came back pink.

@hastd2 Looks beautiful, well wear. Picking up mine on Friday (Carbon Grey as well) and can't wait.

Out of interest, what brand of tyre did you get from the factory? I'm build week 12 so presume I will have got the same.

Thanks, seems like all recent GTI's are coming with Bridgestones. :angry:

Just read your thread about your exchange experience, hope you have better luck with this one.  :smiley:

Lovely car mate!!! Wish I'd got that treatment instead of a handover of a poorly washed car in the rain!
