Bonjour from France - just ordered a Mk6 GTI
« on: 12 May 2009, 17:29 »
Hi all. UK expat here. I ordered a new Golf GTI over here in France last week, but now have to twiddle my thumbs until delivery in August  :sad:

Spec for those interested is:

5-door DSG in carbon grey with rear privacy glass, sunroof, heated cloth seats and standard 17" wheels (I'm not a fan of the 18"). Pretty much like these pictures, in fact, except I'm too tight to pay for xenons:





Total turnkey price, including dealer discounts and inevitable taxes: €30,900 or about £26,900.

I am counting on you guys to help me stand the strain of the 3-month wait  :undecided:

Cheers

Where abouts in France do you live?  I work over in the North most weeks.
