Does anyone know if the MK6 'Match' model of Golf has the round stud clip things for the carpets?
It's just that I am about to order a set that do have the round clip things & need to know in advance if they have them.
Thanks in advance! :smiley:

Are you sure ya car doesn't come with mats? Be cautious too cos genuine mats sometimes does work out any dearer than aftermarket ones.
-
Yup I'm sure it doesn't come with mats - the dealer said that it won't come with mats for some reason, but if I wanted them then they'd cost £65 - wtf!! :sick:
I was looking at these as a substitute:

The golf match won't come with mats, it will have the round studs to keep the mats in place.
Golf mats are now cheaper dealer fit than factory every vw parts dept should sell them for the same price at £38 a set.
-
WTF if I went to order a car and it didn't come with mats I'd tell them to p1ss right off!
That said, for the sake of a few quid, why not just get genuine. You're spending a lot on the car so no point having cheap crappy mats.

Thanks for confirming that there mate. I think I'll just buy some official VW mats since I paid quite a bit of dosh for the car!

That's what I'm going to do - might as well get decentish mats since as you say I spent a lot on the car as it is.

You should have asked about mats before you did the deal with a full tank of fuel :wink:

Without wanting to sound stupid, what is a commission number? :embarassed:
This is my first VW I've bought & first ever factory order car. :smiley:
If I phone up my dealer will he not wonder why I am requesting the commission number?
Of course I can't wait to receive the car & think I'm gonna stick some Shell V-Power in it for it's first few drives.

A comm number is like an ID i.e once you have it vw cust serv and give you informed proper updates, where the car is ect ect....
Don't worry about your dealer just say to him " I wud like the comm number to phone vw cust serv for updates rather than pester you every 5mins lol...he shud understand, mine did....its just like being a kid at Christmas again... :laugh:
Give me a sec and I will give you vw cust serv number :wink:

Superb mate, superb! Thanks for your help there.....I'll get onto that later this week.
At this stage, I have only ordered the car via phone as I am out of the country so phoned the dealer & he took my deposit over the phone - that's all I've done/heard from him regarding the ordering of the car?
Now that he's taken the deposit & said he would send out the finance forms etc, does that effectively mean that the car is ordered?
Sorry for being a baloon tonight!! :grin:

No worries mate, and no not necessarily...it just means he's gonna do it but by now he shud of done it as long as he's got allocation for that model, once the order has been placed with the factory it will automatically generate a personalised number(commission number) I think it's 8 digits...
Once the factory has the order it will be kept on there system until its been given a provisional built week, this can go forward or back until it's gone confirmed, then usually it's set in stone that your car will be built on this date, BUT peeps have said in the past that they've had a so called confirmed build week that has been put back or brought forward....mine didn't go back or forward, I was given a provisional build week which went confirmed and stayed that way...I can only comment on my own experience of course! :wink:
I'm was built on week5(feb 5th)of this yr and I took delivery on the 1st march...
I'm sure you've got nothing to worry about tho...

..and geniune VW mats aren't cheap and crappy?
Mine have serious heel wear on the drivers mat at 11500 miles and 2 years old.
My original Mk3 golf mats are were similarly worn at 80000 miles and 14 years old.

Agree, the VW carpet mats aren't particularly hard wearing. I find the rubber ones are better; much more durable, especially in the winter - carpet mats soaked in rain, slush and mud aren't nice. :sick:

I've got rubber mats over my carpet mats except for the drivers, which is just the rubber mat so it can but clipped in properly. My drivers carpet mat is put away so it will remain like new for ever.
-
Personally I hate rubber mats, look cheap and nasty.
Agreed the VW mats don't last that long before looking tatty, but I treat them as a consumable which is there to protect the cars carpet and when worn out replaced for a new set.
-
I wish they did the rubber GTI mats for RHD cars. :angry:
-
My mrs has rubber mats in her Aygo which came as std but i dislike them as any water from the sole of your shoes just sits on the mats until you remove them and shake it off...
Again car mats are a personal choice I much prefer the carpet ones...
