I'd say best course of action would be:

Bit of water and car shampoo on the area and clay bar the affected area
Dry it off
Put your megs compound onto a microfibre towel and buff (Should give you more cutting ability and generate more heat to remove)
Check that they're gone
Wipe down
Reapply your wax

Nice and simple approach and can be done after the next time you wash your car 

The build dates are a little longer than I thought. Mine is scheduled for build last week of May.

I see the £1000 contribution has been removed by VW.

I also got confirmation each car will receive the following name plate, which I think looks good.

Not sure if it was a rumour, but here’s the post from early. To me it looks like VW intranet/internal comms for their staff. They may have back-stepped on the plate idea if they’re forecasting more than 1000+ orders. Me personally, I would like a numbered plate, it looks quite good!

Was it not always 48k? Has the entire range price increased?

What have I done today? I have decided, (after all and after much agonising), to keep my GTI and invest.

So, booked in for a ceramic detail to top up the one I had done 2 yrs ago and tomorrow will book first replacement of front discs and pads after 50k.

I had the backs done 6 m ago as I knew they were an MOT advisory. My independent VW specialist used very nice dark grey replacement discs so looking fwd to the fronts matching the rears. They go so well with my recently new CM Gunmetal 18” Prets.

So that’s me committed and that’s Mrs P relieved.

I nearly converted to a new Octavia vRS but for a few reasons did not proceed. However the exercise of establishing probable sale value on the GTI was very reassuring as far as the maintenance of residual value is concerned.

All I need now is for the Forum to be as “vigorous” as it was a few years ago!
