I don't know how you've got the discipline to store it, fair play to you.

Main spec - 3 door, carbon grey metallic with black roof, DSG, Vienna leather, 19" Brescia wheels.

Post by: davegixer on 01 April 2017, 20:13: I couldn't be happier right now. Handover was perfect, had a quick blast last night and a good day in the car today, absolutely love it in every way.

I've been trying to find what number they are up to, as mine is brand new it must be 'roughly' 700??
Title: Re: New CS day has arrived!
Post by: rwleigh on 01 April 2017, 20:40: I believe they've stopped building new ones now and they're from stock only so I don't think there'll be many more than 700.

Looks fantastic Dave! I love Carbon Grey under artificial light and when the sunlight catches the metallic flake in it.

Enjoy your new car.

Thanks, I'm really pleased with the colour; my last GTI was Pearl Black (or something like that?) and I very nearly chose black again. Just the black roof on this one now.

Thanks buddy :cool:

Mine is number 704 (built in late December and registered 2 March) - the numbers seem to be all over the place - the highest I'm aware of is 706. Re. total numbers made for the UK, hopefully we will be able to find out eventually - maybe one of our friendly VW dealer forum members can ask VWUK for us?

And your car looks great. :cool:

Post by: davegixer on 01 April 2017, 21:17: Thanks for the info Trev, I wonder if we'll ever get the true final figure? I assume that can only come direct from VW.

And thanks for the kind words :grin:
