Very nice mate  any particular reason for going for a specced up match over the GT?

It was working out alot cheaper, when i say alot, 2/3k. I got a cracking discount + also got the £1500 finance contribution which you dont get with the GT. The only difference between mine and the GT (as far as I know) is the leather interior and the silver insert around the grille between the fog lights. Got a real good offer with regards to the extras too :-)

Very nice car. I had a Match for a few weeks when the Passat was in for some warranty paintwork, and was really impressed with the spec as standard

The givaway that your's isn't a GT (appart from the bits you mentioned and the wheels) are the rear lights. The GT has "Cherry Red" lights, as fitted to the GTI/D before LED rears came along.

Just one thing you are missing is Skoda Yeti exhaust tips. The best £24 you'll spend on your car.

Looking good man, and of course the best colour...

Lots of mods you can do with it of course

Lovely. Sounds like a good deal there. What did you end up paying for it if you don't mind me asking?
Does the GT now get leather as standard? I thought it was just the GTI & GTD
How do you find going from the petrol to the diesel?
I found my 140 took a good few thousand miles to loosen up.
Oh, its well worth going and seeing The Doc for some surgery  Makes the car complete and gives you more MPG.
