Welcome back

Very nice spec, so what the waiting time in your neck of the woods?

ABT Tuning? Was that a dealer option...

Hi...

Week 43

ABT tuning is a lease company demand if you suggest tuning at all to them....

I had it on my previous one....once you have felt that power there is no living without... :cool:

Congrats mate! 8)  If it's an Ed35 you've ordered then they come with the dark tails like the R but if it's a standard GTI then they get the lighter coloured ones.

Are they still taking orders for the Mk6 with the Mk7 book orders just about to open? I know the GTI/GTD hasn't been released yet but they won't keep that part of the factory open just to do the old MK6 GTI's?

I'm sure Evo said October was the cut off for the last Mk6's. You might get the last one ever made :laugh:

Well you are right, also in the Netherlands you have to be quick on the draw to still get the 6....
I am lucky since my first impressions about the 7 are not so thrilling...
