Top class looking car. Best of luck with it. The red badging is awesome!

Collected this yesterday. First impressions after 150 miles are very good. Observations:
- i'd have liked the driver's seat to go a bit lower, but i'm a tall chap
- the Bridgestone tyres are very noisy!
- ride and handling are very good
- no AUX in or USB socket is a shame
- I love the DCC and the "individual" settings
- not sure yet about the sound actuator, it just seems to create a constant drone
- I love the interior lighting
- can't wait for the engine to loosen up and show it's teeth !

Gorgeous pal, best door count/colour combo too! (I am biased of course).

I found the engine really loosened up after 1500 miles or so, and the mpg really settled down after 5000 miles. I'm seeing an average of 32mpg now for knocking about, 42-43 on long motorway runs.

I also find the drivers seat doesn't quite go as low as I'd like (I'm 6' 1"), my wife's 1 Series does have a better driving position, but other than that my niggles are very few and far between. It's a mega car and gets better with the miles!

Its fitted with Bridgestones - Potenza's.... :smiley:

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:

I think it depends on what rims you go for. All the gtis with 19s that I've saw recently, including my own came with P Zeros.
