Order cancelled yesterday. After lots of thinking, I’m still not convinced about the ride quality and I’m not buying a car that can’t be discounted.

That’s a shame King Monkey. Did you ever get a confirmed build week? Looking on Autotrader, there are some new GTIs with over 15% discount, so I get your decision. Did you get your deposit back?

Cheers. Build week is in June. Not bothered if I get the deposit back tbh. The longer I thought, the less it made sense for me. The 45 is hands down the best GTI ever had but I find the ride harsh enough in this.

If mine has the ignition on without the engine running, and i am scrolling through the infotainment centre, it does say switch on engine as its discharging the battery.I think thats normal

Happy to answer any questions.

Collected my ED50 today from dealer in the North East 😀 so happy with the colour, there is so much black gloss going on that the red just fits perfect. Wheels compliment it perfectly. Centre spinning caps included as standard, no plaque

No pics yet as unfortunately drove it very sensibly straight to the detailers for front end (and side sills) PPF and ceramic coatings next week. Don’t expect it back until Thursday or Friday. Loved it though. info screen is actually really good, velour steering wheel nice, engine noise, nice 🤣 felt the nuts. My only question mark would be the ED50 badges, they are effectively stuck on, which, let’s see how that goes over time.
