Thanks guys. Also does the media system require te SD card to be formatted in a certain way like the audi RNS-e system used to require.

I can't say for the GTI/GTD, but I didn't have to do any formatting for it to work in the mk 7 Golf I have currently - there's no reason why the GTI/GTD should be any different.

Did you ever post any pictures of your current courtesy ride Mark?

I didn't - but only because A. It's embarrassing driving a 1.2 Golf S with 85bhp  and B. No one in their right mind would want to see pictures of said car! 

It has no redeeming features other than its a Golf (so well made) and the album artwork on screen is cool!  So what I'll do is double the amount of pictures of my GTI to make up for it - that's if it ever arrives (11 days at Emden car park and counting....  )

Do you find you have to leave earlier in the morning to make it to work on time?

Do you find you have to leave earlier in the morning to make it to work on time? 

Honestly, don't even go there  I drop my daughter off at school, so I'm in the car at 8.45 and I arrive at work at 9.15 - but I know for a fact I can shave at least 10 mins off that time in the GTI - it takes aaaaaaaages to get up to 70mph, and then if I have to brake it takes aaaaaages to get back to 70 again 

On the plus side, I'm getting 41mpg average consumption which is a lot better than the 20 max I was getting in the TT!

The worst bit of it though is that I get overtaken by Peugeot's, 1.6 A3's, 318d's etc etc ie. cars that are driven by c0cks but won't get near me in the GTI.....
