Need advice on buying a GTI Ed35 From dealer new

[HA54SYM`]

The interior has still not been fully cleared up to my knowledge.

Is it the normal GTI leather option, or something else?

The press release for UK states, 35 logos stiched on the vienna leather, and on the website model comparrison it mentions leather + honeycomb cloth, which sounds like the Euro half leather spec with 35 logos.

Asker: (I presume your virtual friends call you that because you are as thick as sh1t) Kind of you. For once I understood what you were on about.

Even a GTI running on 19" is not a bad ride... some people just talk alot of crap.

Thank you for proving me right all along by using language that defines both of you perfectly.
The saying language maketh the man is so true.

May I venture to ask if either of you has used ACC over a sustained period on our broken tarmac?

I havn't used ACC for a long enough period to give it proper evaluation, but your original comment stated that Golfs with 18" wheels without ACC were undrivable. I, like so many others with 18" wheels and no ACC find the ride perfectly acceptable.

You have to try and stop using abusive words and language that define you so perfectly.

why would i need to use ACC over a sustained period?? You may want to re-read what I said... "..a GTI running on 19" is not a bad ride"

just to add... have you run a gti on 19" wheels?? It must be so horrible to drive a golf on 19" wheels... must be why VW offer them as an optional extra

on my scirocco acc came as standard and its really only noticable to me when hard cornering. imo

i have 19 inch wheels and the ride is fine to me with comfort or sport on

I wrote sometime ago about the ride difference of two GTIs with 17" and 18" wheels.

From:
http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=192717.0

Yesterday evening, I had the opportunity of driving a white 5 door Mk6 GTI with ACC and 17" wheels shod with Bridgestone Potenza tyres. Needless to say, I compared it with mine which is very similar but has 18" wheels and Bridgestone Potenza tyres.

Both cars had full tanks of petrol and the tyre pressures checked when cold. I also had a Bruel & Kjaer sound level meter to hand. Both cars have done approximately 3500 miles and tyre wear was exactly the same. We drove the cars in 'Normal' and 'Comfort' modes.

This is what we found:

(1) The 17" wheels poduced less noise by approximately 1.7 dB(A) averaged over a couple of measurements. They really felt quiter. We did not conduct dB SPL measurements or a 1/3 octave band frequency analysis.
(2) The 17" wheels produced a more compliant ride in both 'Comfort' and 'Normal' modes. There was much less crashing over sharp ridges.
(3) We also found the ride in 'Normal' mode with the 17" much more acceptble.
(4) In 'Comfort' mode, the 17" produced a magic carpet ride.
(5) The 18" wheels prduced very slightly better handling for me (very subjective), though my friend preferred the ability of the 17" in this respect.
(6) The 18" wheels looked infinitely better.

Therefore, and hopefully logically, the above observations should provide some inkling of the difference in ride between 18" and 19" wheels and the benefits of ACC.

What is clear, for me at least, is that ACC is a must have and valuable option.

if you want a smooth ride, then buy something that is not fitted with sporty suspension... simple

And because that's what you think, everyone else has to agree?
