I want that hazard triangle, seriously I do. Do I ask for it if its not in the boot ?

Not sure about your UK spec... Well look at the left side in your boot, if there is a clip and a strap and no red plastic case, then you should ask for it. But if there is nothing at either sides, then perhaps UK spec does not include a hazard triangle but its compulsory for it in continental Europe though...

The tight-fisted VWUK does not deem the Golf to be adequately pricey enough to include a cheap-ass warning triangle. So we have to pay extra and buy it ourselves.  :angry:

can't believ you all waited that long.  depends on what you added to a standard model i guess.  its not worth getting the extras as you dont recuperate them when you sell.


Believe us it was not out of choice, the cars simply had not been built yet, irrespective of options.  Yours is defo a record, vast majority here have had to wait 6-8 weeks and sometimes much more.

Re options, mine is my personal car that I'll keep for at least 3yrs so I want some toys. I know not all options hold value, but compared to the depreciation of the basic car, its nothing over 3 yrs.
