I’ve been on the fence with what to do regarding whether to order or not, but sitting in a standard 8.5 GTI sold me - it just feels right and I never got that with the RS3. Plus even the standard 8.5 GTI drives really well, so looking forward to driving the ED50.

I have a pretty high NVH tolerance so not worried about what the PP will drive like on UK roads. Personally I would not order an ED50 without PP.

That's why I got a CS, it also felt right to me too. Very annoying as I really fancied something different. As for ride quality, I'd be surprised if it doesn't exceed your expectations, mine rides beautifully, really comfortable. Probably why I've put over 5k miles on it in less than 4 months...

Thanks guys!

Delivery timeline is May but none of the orders are scheduled so quite a few unknowns.

Order placed - TR, PP and Area View

Congrats, very nice spec.  Any idea when it will be delivered?

Tbh the dsg is prob nearly due for oil change tbf i think .
I've only owned the car 4 mths.
Think maybe gear oil change poss needed then ? Seemed a bit odd it was all at once tho, the abs light came on with the esp fault on dash as I was slowing down for traffic lights and then thats when the D flashing happend.
