Stuff to buy for the Mk7

[GTI7me]

So with it not being long until the pick up date now i'm starting to get the urge to buy things for the Mk7 already.

Would like some tasteful stuff that adds a little personality to the Golf.

Suggestions?

I wouldn't buy anything for it before you've got it, just in case VW piss you off to the point you look elsewhere.

Just got myself a fresh set ready for the new one!

Where do you apply the stickers Jimble? Rear window, rear right, rear left, etc ?

I am buying a boot tray liner for mine, so my surf kit and wetsuit etc, doesn't get sand a salt water all over the carpet in the boot.  I will also probably buy a new plastic storage tub to put the wetsuit in and contain it in when wet.  I would also get official GTI Mats should they exist, which at present they do not.  Other than that probably new SD Cards to store my music on, a third spare key to take in surfing and a new Aquapac Diving bag to keep the key in. 

I may also buy a load of new car care stuff.

Gone are the days of stickers in the windows, I like to keep things minimal these days.

Besides a Monza red richbrook tax disc holder, the only thing I would consider adding to my car, at a push, is a change of valve caps on the wheels to a gloss black to match the gloss black on the wheels, but doubt I'll make that happen.  Don't like any stickers of any kind in the windows, especially dealer stickers where I've specifically asked them not to bother.  My car isn't a mobile advertisement for my dealership!

I'm a long way off collecting mine but already looking to buy it some extras.

If you buy those, you won't be able to fit the GTI/GTD tags onto the bottom of your keys - they extend the length of the key.

At the moment, I have just a forum tax disc holer, bootliner, rubber mats, mudflaps* and pentaglass planned for mine.

Its all functional gear to protect it and keep me enjoying it as I hack around the country for work



*I live and work where the roads are generally rubbish, and aside the protection I've found with my last 2 cars that these help with advance warning of grounding and such
