Can't believe anyone went with those wheels tbh

Maybe it’s a dealership car rather than a customer’s. A dealer won’t worry too much what alloys it’s got - someone will buy just it because it’s an ED50.

I dare say some people will like those alloys - we’re all different with our own likes and dislikes.

I ask them to leave on cos it goes straight to the detailers and they prefer it with the stickers on. If you say nothing they’ll obviously take them off for when they present you the car.

Also, that’s not my car, mine don’t have PP 😬

Last min change and went for a 2022 manual gti. It's had all the OTA updates and the sos module replaced.

I will be in the minority but really not getting on with DSG, seems to take part of driving away which I enjoy :)

In general do you have to ask for your brand new carto be delivered with all of the white protective wrapping on?

Or is that not a 'thing' anymore?

Thanks for posting Trev. Did you get round to ordering one or are you waiting to see if there are any discounts on stock cars?
I haven't ordered one so far Paul!  I may reconsider if VW start discounting them but I really can't see that happening.  I'm also really enjoying my Black Edition 8.5R and I live in hope that an RS3 engined version may appear next year!
