It looks brilliant, Garwen!

Good pointers by Joe too. I also would ask to double and triple check they take out the transport blocks. Sometimes they ‘forget’

For the wheel caps, I was under the impression you had to the spec the £160 something option as dynamic wheel caps when configuring it? UK website doesn’t show it as standard. If not, well sh!t I spec’ed the wrong thing but adding that option, I didn’t know they were standard spec.

Yeah I’m not actually 100% sure they are standard either but pretty much every press shot shows them and VW’s own configurator images show them fitted too as you build the car. Agree, they don’t make it very clear though.

I've seen 2 or 3 pop up on my Facebook feed sitting in VW showrooms in the last day or two - and all of them have the spinning centre caps fitted.

My All-in finished in March and now I'm too old to renew so I'm looking at the Plus Plan to replace it.

I was looking at the Plus Plan only because my car should have it's plugs changed next year in year eight (they did them in year 4 last time under the All-in plan) and they are included in the Plus Plan.

Before I go ahead does anyone know roughly if it's the time VW might have a sale on? I think the Plus Plan is around £27 a month but I don't want to buy it only for a sale to be announced.

(I bought VW breakdown cover separately)

Unfortunately this happens on all audio outputs...

This is discussed here...

But I meant those annoying audio interruptions.

Describe those interuptions... from what audio source?

If its like a split second stutter (like a CD skipping) and the source is from your phone (either local files on the phone or something like spotify) then its almost certainly the phone/phone-connection. Try restarting your phone and see if its better.

If its coming from the radio... its probably not that.

I wrote about this a while ago on here and nobody was interested in my comments or thoughts!

Hey paul, no mention about the alloys but I’m in contact with someone else now so will find out tomorrow what the situation is with the alloys, I’m probably going to cancel my order with my current dealer and purchase another from a stock order that an already build and on its way to the uk, finding out tomorrow if it’s got what I’m want on it
