Owner Manual in English
« on: 02 December 2009, 10:07 »
Hey All

I just joined the group...as I bought a GTI (in white). I moved to Spain from the UK few weeks ago and found one that was available! Its a great car and great drive too!

I have received all the books etc but they are in Spanish. Does anyone know how I can get a PDF version of the English one? Any help would be appreciated.

Also, what does the Travel Guide menu do on the MFD?

Thanks and look forward to being a member.

Welcome to the board from a fellow UK expat. This question has been asked before and AFAIK there's no PDF available. The best solution is to call a UK VW dealer and order a printed copy. I believe they're about £10-15.
