I just looked, that’s unreal 🤯 I don’t understand how the prices vary so dramatically

We get a right seeing to over here I’m afraid! High taxes on cars, particularly anything performance that doesn’t come with batteries  :wink:

Probably gonna disappoint as I DID NOT spec the PP. I couldn’t justify it at an already premium price point. I ain’t gonna be talking it on a track and I think the ride is gonna feel great either way. Tornado red, red glaze QT, area view, HK, and AV steering wheel. Debated the pano but went agaisnt it. My previous car (S3 saloon) I had the pano, and whilst good for the visuals I rarely used it, and as the ED50 has the black roof, this was enough for me :) hopefully have some nice pics after detailing in a week or two ☺️🙏

Sounds lovely! Yep, the PP is a difficult one to justify. I dare you to look at what it costs to spec here in Ireland…

Looking forward to the pics!

Guess as he's never being back since 18th March at 9.30am he hasn't seen the reply and tried it. Oh well. Don't know why I bother sometimes.

Yeah I do wish the forum was busier.

Golf mk8 / Re: Do service at 12 months or not?
« Last post by joe6 on 09 April 2026, 10:00 »
I would get the service done and then wait for August for the all in plan. Service costs will go up so you will probably save a few  £ by having the two 'free' ones later.

Golf mk8 / Re: 8.5 - 1st oil change

First oil change I personally would change the filter as well. Why leave any possible contaminants in the filter to get into new oil. Also old school with oil changes.  :smiley:
