Expected to make much of a difference to insurance?

Word is that the insurance rating is five groups lower than the old model how much of that is down to ADC nobody really knows for sure.

Easiest way to check is do two separate quotes from the same insurance company, one the 'Launch GTI 2013' and then one a 'GTI 2013 onwards.'

I'm assuming this is a very early one as its available very soon.  I'll check tomorrow.  Lack of adc could be a bargaining tool

So which one did you go for in the end (spec)? Benfield, Pulman or Lookers?

Bet if feels good to avoid the factory order wait!  How many miles will it have on it? Or was it in the showroom?

Hi Bill.  I didn't really know what car I was going to go far at the end of my current deal and didn't think I'd be able to afford a mk 7 to be honest.  So I wasn't really aware of the factory wait until I registered on here.  Must be so frustrating.

It has 2.5k on it.  It really is immaculate so I'm very pleased with the deal.  I've had 2 test drives and these are phenomenally good cars.  Massive step forward from the mk 5 I had a few years back.
