I wasn't convinced either by the active info display at first, but now I've got used to it I don't think i'd consider a new Golf without it. I'd also be put off by a used car that was missing any standard equipment.

That being said, it's your money so buy what you want and live with the consequences.

Because I don’t really like them.

The quandary is; would it be a huge put off whenever I come to move it on.

If you want to avoid the digital dash and get something special, you're better off shopping for a Clubsport.

Personally, if I saw a TCR that had the digital dash ripped out, I wouldn't go near it.

Agreed! Get a CS.

It would be like changing the Mk7.5 headlights back to Mk7s because you prefer xenons to LED. You just wouldn't do it!

I'm a bit of a luddite and understand the preference for real dials but, at some point in buying a new car there will be no choice so best to breathe deep and embrace the change. You might like it :smiley:

That's good  :smiley: I don't imagine they have many to build, especially now the WTLP backlog should be cleared.

Looks nothing in red imho.  I think for it to look special it needs to be in the unique signature grey.

Red looks stunning in the TCR. Grey looks at best ok, too much like the free grey they do on offer models though.
