GTi ordered - Deep Black Pearl
« on: 14 July 2009, 10:33 »
Been lurking for a while while I made up my mind and read other people's posts.

This will be my 5th GTi having previously owned 3 x Mark 2 16v which were brilliant and 1 x Mk 4 which was not so brilliant.

I left the GTi fold when the Mark 4 was stolen from my house and bought a MarkV GT TDI 4 motion which has been excellent but not much fun.

Anyway the MK6 arrives at the end of October which is quite a long wait.

5 Door
Sunroof
Monza alloys
Deep Black pearl
Cruise Control
Lux and Storage Pack
Bluetooth Phone prep
Rear side Airbags

I have 2 kids now hence the storage pack and rear side airbags which are both on my MkV as well.

Could not stretch to the leather, xenons, nav, sound upgrade etc but am very happy with this spec and am looking forward to being in a GTi again.

It seems a GTi of some incarnation has been with me for most of my life.

Congrats, you got all the important options (almost the same config as mine). Leather, xenons, etc. are absurdly expensive.

I wonder if mine's on that boat. I ordered on May 1st - probably before you did - so I should get mine first!!!!!
