Enjoy!!! I was grinning ear to ear when I saw mine and drove it. Guy walked me round it, I was just like yeh give me the keys il get to grips with the details later ha

Enjoy!! With the weather out as well you'll have a blast!

Just checked with my dealer and my GTI should be with them by mid week. Relatively quick transfer. Just checked that the Viking Constanza is at Emden at the moment and has been for last 24hrs. Good chance that another batch to Sheerness coming on that one based on how it's been moving in the past. Breeza, here's hoping your one is on that boat

[Ross Detours]

Hopefully mine too... fingers crossed!

CarMadDad - enjoy mate! Pics as soon as poss!

The Emden is due to land at Emden and its another one that carries vehicles to Sheerness.

Well. I picked it up. Here's a few pics:











First impressions?.... Well, the amount of stuff to get your head around is overwhelming at first. Really gonna have to read the manual on this one! Ha! I've found the keyless to be very cool! A really useful feature. The clutch is taking a bit of getting used to, but that's prob because I'm used to an auto. It really does pull well in gear, 3rd is a hoot! 6th seems to be nothing more than a cruising gear. Can't wait to really flex the car when it's been run in, I feel guilty every time I give the fast pedal a gentle prod hehe! Seats are comfy, but don't think I've found the perfect position yet.

Anyway all good so far from my first 60 mile drive

Looks fantastic! Not jealous much... 

[Ross Detours]

Looks awesome. I was so choosing Tornado Red too. Otherwise, manual, 5 door, 18" alloys, keyless... Very similar to mine, I'm so jealous. Haha

How is the keyless entry? What happens if you just walk away and don't press the dimple on the handle? Does it lock anyway?

[TheCarMadDad]

Keyless is great. Works really well. I've looked everywhere for this nipple but I can't seem to find it anywhere so I've just been locking it with the fob for now :/
