Will need to get shopping for G-techniq now

“The ultimate finish” website is as cheap as anywhere else for G-Techniq products but has the lowest threshold for free postage that I have seen at £30 minimum spend for free postage.

Your spec looks same as mine + extras. Tornado Red looks great with the C2V3 treatment.
Whey ya bugger! It's finally arrived after an 8 month wait....

I have finally just been told by my VW Dealer that my car started production today and is at checkpoint 1 of the process.  What ever Checkpoint 1 of the process means I am unsure, I suspect it means VW is started to ponder over my cars gutted empty chassis what to do next while having a kit kat and cup of tea  :laugh:

If it's anything like my experience it will build and goto transit within 5 days. Good luck buddy!
