ACC, winter pack (cheaper than the online configuration as the xenons already have washers).
Deep Black Pearl. Service plan.

Looks like the first delivery boat is filling up fast...

Liking the colour also as I have ordered the same!

I did wonder whether to get ACC, I have it on the Scirocco (standard fit) - it is useful in the winter to stick it in "comfort" (soft) to lessen the blow for wheels hitting potholes in the winter so you don't end up with sidewall bulged tyres. I never use "normal", it is either in hard or soft (sport) mode.

my previous gti didn't have it the one I have now has and I've only had the car 3 weeks and couldn't live without it!

You succumbed to the screenwash sales tactic - VW are well known for it :)


Sounds a nice spec. I'm going to be jealous come Summer but have decided to keep mine until I decide whether to go for the R or not then decide whether to stay Golf or see if something else tempts me....

You don't need to buy screen wash a new GTI comes already full so you can buy that instead.

I didn't buy the screen wash in the end. Thought I'd put the £4 towards the ACC instead.

Do what I should have done.

Send the wife after telling her there is a new shoe shop in town.
Will take between 3 and 4 seconds to drop off the keys.

DO NOT GO IN YOURSELF.

If you really, really have to then good luck.
Be strong. :whistle:

Its ok the R was sold.  :smiley: Passed MOT too and brake fluid for a mere £98. Had a sit in a TSI Blue motion GT mk7 though. Was ok, nothing that stuck out and said buy me like the old mk6 GTD did over my mk5 GT TDI 140.  Noticed the screen is smaller than the RCD510. Too much shiny black piano plastic though the dust was settling too.
