VW Driver GTI Special mag feature - my mk6

[C3PO]

Cheers C3PO    R will be ordered soon and I intend to enjoy it, and keep it clean 

Bet you can't wait for yours.  What spec you gone for?

Like a kid waiting for santa

Metallic blue, 19" wheels, reversing camera and leather (not nappa), seen a couple around and drool every time I see one. Managed to keep it a secret from my 15 year old son who is a petrol head, and arranged with the dealership to do some special handover. Suspect it will be a March delivery as dealership emailed to say build week 4 currently.

You decided on a spec? I bet the trade in on yours will be superb, unless you sell to a forum member who appreciates the car and the love it's had

Nice spec Neil     Bet your son will be over the moon and nice to make an occasion of it for him (and you).  My daughter's only 8 but already a little petrol head, wonder where she gets that from    I'm not bothered about a handover ceremony, prefer low key affair in the back of the car park 

I didn't like the nappa so also going for normal leather, but full spec will be:

5 door DSG
Deep Black Pearl
19" Pretorias
Dynaudio
Vienna Leather
DCC
Discover Nav
Rear cam
Keyless
High beam assist

Unsure what trade-in I'll get.  Will be making enquiries this week.  Great discount on new usually equals average/low px price on old, but it's the cost to change that really counts, so we'll see.  Mk6 is in great condition, apart from my kerbed alloys 

A lot of conflicting info on lead-in times but if the rumoured 32+ weeks is likely then I might as well go for Sept 2015 delivery, rather than getting it June/July.  Long wait but hopefully it will be worth it

Nice spec, I keep looking at black cars, knowing I would get over obsessive about keeping it clean.

My trade in was higher than expected, bearing in mind I have nearly 61k on the clock, but dealership promised to offer a great deal so cost to change was too good to be true, plus heavy discount on the R. Need to start looking at insurance quotes as GTI is so cheap to insure it ridiculous.

I also have a kerbed alloy (felt sick when it occurred) and all my fault. My wife said "thank god it was you and not me" 

If the delivery dates stay true mine will be around 28 weeks, so your estimate providing things don't change will be spot on.
