Warmest of welcome's.

Good choice you have made there sir, I have a red 3door myself.

I would agree with mr gtd that you should consider some rear led lights, they look the business!

Thanks :). Yeah hopefully get some better pics once I've got it going to be a long day at work tomorrow counting time till can pick it up!

Before this I've been in a seat Ibiza Cupra which I'm sad to see go as its a stunning car but with all the engine issues people been having with the 1.4tsi and it being out of warranty I've decided to trade in
. I'm sure the gti won't disappoint though!

I have been looking and that's a good price, do you need to be careful on LHD vs RHD buying from Europe in respect of he fog light location?

I'm looking at a car with this head unit. Did you happen to notice whether it worked with the mfsw and whether track names etc appear in the instrument cluster display?

I would assume they do?
