Wow, I have had a few post Grand Prix drinks here but....

Do the seats have the GTi emblem stitched into them ? - No, they are just Tarten cloth. I didn't like the look of the head rests compared the mk6, but hey the seats are super, super comfy.
Is your car manual or dsg? - Manual
What are the paddles made out of please - Don't know it a manual.
Are the interior courtesy lights bright enough? The pics i've seen so far seem like they don't cast much light. - No, and from what I remember there is no setting for them, like there was in the mk6. I'm not sure its a major issue, in the footwell etc, but the upper level (dash and upper doors) really look amazing!
Did you find out how to turn the ADC off? - To be honest I don't know now. I said you could, but there are so many settings its a bit OTT. You can turn the stop start / off by the gear lever, but I will look if you can turn the ADC fully off.
Electric parking brake, it really takes some getting used too, seems to not want to disengage sometimes when on a hill.
