Ta. Just been out in the dark. Lights are amazingly good, even compared with the xenons I had on my Volvo S80. All the lighting assistance made zipping round my local narrow country roads very easy.

Hoping they get yours sorted for Monday afternoon  :smiley:

You couldn't make this stuff up.   My car is on a lorry which has broken down between the port and the dealership.

It's not going to arrive until late tomorrow. Which means (as I'm away for work) no pickup until Thursday afternoon.

Hi All, new forum member. Had my GTI for a week now, I was also build week 43. Wish I had found this forum whilst I was waiting for my car as I see a lot of threads that cover the same issues / feelings that I had whilst waiting for the car. Mine was built and shipped over to the UK all within 5 days, then sat at the UK docks for 7! Loving the car now, done about 200miles.
Cheers

I felt sick the night before I picked mine up as I was sooo excited. You will love it.

Actually it's strange, the loaned me a Mk7 GT so it's been fun driving that around and playing with DSG so I've not been thinking about my GTI every five minutes.

Booked the morning off work to go for a drive when I collect it though :)
