Just been given a build date of week 14 so delivery in April :D

 :cool: wk14 is the wk commencing the 26th march, so 2wks from today...

As long as it doesn't take to long at the port of exit(Emden) then you shud have it by the end of April...

Excellent, i actually cannot wait! Just give my current Jan 2009 Golf 6 of which im trading in a massive clean & wax today, think that will be its last lol.

With regards to building the car, ive added in quite alot of extras, does this make the process much longer?

Dynaudio, fogs, tints, winter pack, bigger wheels with sports suspension, park assist & camera, tire pressure monitor..... think thats it lol its a Match 2.0 TDI 140bhp as the Match works out alot less expensive than a GT for more kit (minus leather interior). So it also has the RCD510, parking sensors, alarm, bluetooth, leather multifunction wheel & other leather bits and bods, rain sensor and auto lights etc etc

Oh, and in Candy White of course :)

Just read that, happy days, makes me actually feel glad that I ordered a 2.0 140 as almost everyone agrees that its the best all rounder, i work in an airport around 20 miles from home so i need something economical :) I was also having a nosey on VW's website today and i couldnt help notice that between the 1.4 TSI 122 and the 2.0 140, theres only something like 0.2 seconds difference in the 0-60 sprint :/ strange seeing as theres a whole 18bhp extra in the diesel. I take it its the weight of the diesel + the petrol having the extra 1500 revs, still glad i went for the diesel as it does alot more MPG :)

From day one I always wanted a golf and if I'm honest Ive always loved the R32s and I did have the opportunity to get one before going for the GTD...my mrs begged me to re think the R32 due to the fuel costs, thankfully I listened and went for new instead on 2nd hand, I've always bought new so I think it wud have been weird stepping into something used.

My previous cars have been 1st car pug106 then 2 swifts 56 & 58 plate and now the GTD. the 2 swift where really reliable and never let me down and as much as I liked them I always felt there was something missing...so this is pretty much how I've ended up in a GTD, but it must be said that if it wasn't for my grandads sad passing (alzheimer's) I wudnt of been able to afford it.

The cars I've had in the past have never had much poke so it's a joy to get in a car and to know if you need it then the power is there...

Sorry for the story!! LOL
