Title: Not much longer to wait
Post by: RickS on 28 June 2012, 07:15
Well, it's in Grimsby and been allocated a transporter, expecting to take delivery next Wednesday - I've been very patient but now I'm starting to get excited.
I love the GTI and it's not put a foot wrong, but I'm hoping the R will be everything I'm expecting it to be.

I'm sure the R won't disappoint. That's a great spec you've gone for there as well.

I would hibernate for a few days until its ready for collection.

Yes, ordered Feb 4th Dave.
Good chance they were on same boat; yes on the pics, but if weather stays as it is they'll be pictures of wet R's :grin:. If it's raining when I collect mine might take a couple in dealers before it gets wet.

Mine looks like they'll be wet pictures...better look up how to upload them on here so I'm not at a disadvantage  :wink:

Shame yours has been so long.

+1 Kid at christmas feeling, and cheers Edi 35! (although I will admit if Rising Blue was an option on mine I'd have had that!)
