Should probably put this in the 'For Sale' section but here seemed to be the most sensible place - and I am giving it away! No longer needed as I've swapped my white GTI for a silver one. Cover the postage costs via PayPal and it's yours.
Mods - I fully understand if this gets moved.
-
Ooohhh! I could make good use of that if someone hasn't beaten me to it.
:smiley:

You are the first in line Sir. Can you drop me a PM with your details and I'll do the same.? No idea what the postage will be but I'll get it sent and let you know.
-
Any pics of your silver one? I've ordered a silver. Seems a rare GTI colour?
-
Thanks very much G-B, PM sent

It really is a great colour and hard to believe it's now one of the rarest colours. Contrasts really well with the wheels and red details on the front of the car. I also think it shows off the lines of the car brilliantly I've also noticed loads of people giving the car a second look - probably more than my previous car which was a Cayman. I'm going to view that as a good thing!
Took loads more pictures today so let me know if you need more to whet your appetite. What have you gone for? Spec? Three / five door?

I ordered a 5 door DSG Performance, cloth seats, I'm in Ireland and got a free tech pack because I ordered in Q1, regular nav, reverse camera, media in, auto light assist. I'm BW19, our plates change on July 1st so I hope to collect that day.
Your car looks great. I'm delighted I picked silver

Same offer as the OP's own - but for a Tornado Red touch-up stick with the clear lacquer top coat - Lapiz R imminent so I will have no further use of them. Any takers?

@monkeyhanger,
I haven't interacted with you here yet but I read your story between here and the R forum and have to say I admire your patience and I hope you enjoy your R.

Yes, there's a lot of reading between ridiculous waiting times and asking VW not to supply slippery Bridgestones. Nothing surprises me with VW these days, following the farcial order mix up between mine and my dad's GTDs that saw mine come 9 weeks later than planned in 2013, looks like the R has beaten it.
But what are you to do? I can't think of a car i'd otherwise own at a similar price-point, except possibly an S3, but Audi aren't exactly belting those out in 8-10 weeks either unfortunately. It's a good job the MK7 Golf is so good, otherwise i'd have never had the patience for it.

Nice spec. PP is well worth it as far as I'm cocnenred. Make sure you post pics when it arrives.
-
Well I hope it lives up to expectation. I'm BW19. What BW did you get. Did I see 18?

Yes, confirmed BW18 - your BW19 should be confirmed this coming Friday, you'll see your tracker status move to stage 3. I'm sure it will live up to expectations. I already have 90% of the car in my GTD, just needing a fair few more horses and more initial grip without the rampant tramping for it to be nigh-on perfect. The mpg drop will take a little getting used to though!

@golfball, I wasn't going to add the PP at all but when I saw it only altered my pcp monthly payment by a few quid I decided to add it. I will certainly add pics when I pick it up July 1st.
@monkeyhanger, I'm in Ireland and we don't have a tracker to access. We rely on dealer or vw Ireland to get info. I was tempted by to delay until bw22 for the radio etc but I want the car July 1st so wasn't tisking getting bw24,25 etc.
You will find a huge difference in the R to the GTD. Looking forward to seeing the pics
