Well at exactly 1pm today i will be picking up and paying for my MK6 gti :grin:
I never had a new car before and im coming from a second hand MK4 V5 not a bad car but compared to what im about to pick i think you get the point anyways hopefully ill have some pics maybe even a hd vid if im feeling in the mood just thought id come on here to vent all my pent up excitment :smug:
-
Exciting times :laugh: :laugh:, Enjoy :smiley:
What spec have you gone for ?
-
Ummm...... lets see if i remember oh yeah
3 Door / deep black piant / monza shadow alloys / DSG / RCD 510 / leather / zenons (that may be spelt wrong) / winter pack and i think thats it i know it only got built recently tho so im hoping for rear LED's.
-
Enjoy :smiley: and welcome :smiley:
-
Welcome to the forum.
Looks like you've spec'd yourself a great GTI there. I'm sure it should have FRONT and REAR LED's.
Enjoy and Happy Birthday to your new car. :smiley:
Make sure you post some pictures up of you new motor as its the law round here :wink:
-
thank's guys and all i can say is WOW the car looks breath taking and flies like sh!t off a hot shovel tok a while for me to finish faffing about with the seat postion and lumbar thingy plus had to adjust the wheel aswell but wow.
Yep i have both rear and front led's and i gotta say the monza shadows look sooooo good up close the pictures really dont do em justice. just waiting for the camerea to charge as my missus has got the DSLR but i will have them up asap. :grin: :grin: :grin:

nice car espically now with the DRL's with xenons
-
Nice car and you've definitely gone for the best colour :grin:
Sadly for me those front LEDs do nothing for the car but WTF that's just my opinion.
Enjoy and watch your foot these cars speed up fast without you knowing :wink:
-
Wit woo he is a pretty boy :wink:
Welcome to the fold :smiley:

Congrats mate! Looks lovely, i remember this day almost 12 months ago and it still makes me smile every time i walk back to the car in a car park! :smug: i thought you'd have got the new badge on the steering wheel though? :huh:
Enjoy and welcome to the fold! :cool:
-
I would advice you push your wheel nut covers in a little bit as they may just go for a trip down the road by themselfs. :wink:

I don't have the new badge either, does anyone here have it?
-
what does the new badge look like???
-
Where the metal badge says GTI it now is part painted rather than a textured metal with just the letters as silver.
-
Yeah i have the new badge on my 2011 GTD, black instead of silver.
-
Here's a link to a question i asked about it with pictures :wink:

^ So did you price one up? Steve says in that thread its easy to remove after removing the airbag.
I ment to have a look at one of the new ones at my local dealer when i took my car in for a service to see if i like it in real life but i forgot :embarassed:

I notice the DSG gear stick and ESP button have changed, here is mine
(http://www.thewindinglane.co.uk/images/mk6gti/misc/misc1.jpg)
And the RCD510 has the Highline display colour scheme as opposed to the Sportsline, maybe this is only an option on the RNS510

I'm with Gizzy on the front LEDs. Every time I see these in my rear view mirror they just look naff. On Audis they are just awful and they're now even on new style Mondeos. Cheap. cheap, cheap - they look like a revin' Kevin's modified Nova and do nothing for a class car like the GTi
Still, like Gizzy said, that's just my opinion.
The rears on the other hand I think look really smart.

No mate, as soon as i found out what was involved to change it i lost interest! :undecided: although i might consider it if i ever get round to getting cruise fitted, i just can't afford any mods really atm as my insurance and tax are up this month plus loads of other weddingy type stuff! :angry:
