Today was the day (not a GTi sorry)
« on: 23 April 2010, 21:11 »
Well today was the day I collected my new Golf GTD.  Very pleased with it everything went smoothly thanks to Lee from VW, and my dad for getting it PDI'd and sorted out so quickly.  Paint finish is very good and the wing/door join problems actually very hard to spot.  It doesnt have the A-Pillar problem and the boot floor is pink is which black shiney hooks at the rear and pink hooks at the front.  The only issue is the dirt from the car park as its now plastered in dust.  And the fact that sometimes the RCD510 thinks the SD card is no longer present and eject and re-insert solved that.

6.2 miles nice.

p3asa: Thank you for paying so much attention to my posts! Most honoured. :smiley:
The wheels are indeed dinky = cute = lovely = I love them too = fabulous with Tornado Red! :grin:
I would never abuse you or anyone for that matter, at least not intentionally. Please accept my sincere apologies if I was remiss with you in the past.
Now stop hurting my tender feelings. I have enough on my plate with the Wokshop Foreskin tomorrow at the dealership.
Sorry to hijack this thread ajmoir.
Love the GTD just as much as I love my GTi!
There, I said it Steve. :smiley:
BTW p3asa, I'm on the vino at the present! :laugh:

Thanks it brings a smile to my face and it does turn heads.  Its nice being sat at a roundabout with a passenger sitting in a corsa next to you just staring at the car.  (I wish i had one of those)

Gorgeous.

Yes it is.

Wicked the noise in the cabin when you accelerate is very cool.  Much better than my mk5 GT Tdi 140 it just rattled.
