Forgot to mention - is the 1 litre oil top up bottle in the boot - in the little holder area on the right? If so, mines missing - seller must have used it already. Should have checked before I bought I guess :(

However, good news is................at least I got the bottle opener!!!!!!! lol ;)

I'm missing mine :angry:

Is it anything special? Wack a pic over Ifti please.

The 'extra' bottle of LongLife Oil was an extra provided by some dealers to owners of new cars.. I've had 5 new Mk5 GTIs/R32s from 3 dealers and never had a bottle.   :cry:  I wouldn't expect one on a used car.

We will be always grateful for that, that would have been a bad day :smug:

wow - the petrol indicator goes down quick!! lol

I may need to top up oil soon, I have some Castrol Magnatec 5w30 in my garage - is that safe to use??
I know I should get Castrol Edge - but just wondering if I can top up a little with the Magnatec for today?

Congrats on the purchase!  You made a very good choice.  I came from a smaller car too but the first time i drove the car back from the dealership it felt like I had been driving if for ages.  It's surprisingly very easy to get used to, as it will happily drive in docile mode as it would at defcon 5 :evil:  Its quite funny actually - drive the smaller car around a bend quickly and there's so much going on (body roll, engine revs, stuff flying everywhere (including yourself), tyres screaching).  Drive this car around the same bend at the same speed and everything is calm, peaceful and collected.
