Yesterday afternoon I picked up my Clubsport, had a quick mess around with it last night trying to get my head round all the controls and head unit.

Today, as I asked them not to valet it, I've spent most of the day cleaning the already clean interior.

Really pleased with it so far, everything's as it should be, not uncovered any nasty surprises.

When importing music to Jukebox it reports 12gb hdd available??  Thought they had 64gg hdd??

Would you consider getting the front end wrapped in PPF if there's very few stone chips?

Can't comment on the Jukebox I just run spotify as it's handier.

Looking fantastic!
It's come up really well, I assume you had a serious wax or ceramic coat treatment to protect it since January?

That's a shame, no need to be a stranger though, I'm sure you still have plenty of experience that will be of interest to others :smiley:. All the best!

Thanks for the comments :smiley: The wax is FinishKare 1000P and does have a good life. I doubled up with a top layer of their Pink paste wax too. I like it, gives good results and it's a decent price. Although it might be that with the amount of muck that's been on the car continuously it's had very little exposure for it to degrade :laugh:

What’s. Thanks, always found you very helpful. I’m staying within the VW group, getting a Skoda Karoq (With virtual cockpit of course 😀) so the good and bad it’s fairly similar I guess
