I picked up my diamond black gti at the end of july had it a week opened the bonnet to check oil and water only to find that the bonnet hinges and strut tops havent been painted properly took it back to the dealer only to be told they are all like that i just wondered if anyone else has noticed theirs. since july the car has been back to the dealer four times and it will be a fifth on monday has anyone elses number plate lights fallen out or has the centre mounted dash vent popped upat the corners ? its going in on monday to have the timing belt cover replaced because its rubbing on the camshaft pulley. OH and the car only has 1100 miles on the clock!

cant say i had that but after 3 months on the boot door, when you open it by the ram that connects to the car, there is a water sill type things. Had rust break out there. Done under warranty
