GTD Ordered - I Think?

Yes those are all standard items on GTI/GTD from BW22 onwards.

Maybe I'm just not looking in the right place but I can't find it.
In saying that though I seen Keyless as standard the other day yet its not there in the "Standard features" today!

The winter pack would be a good addition. Strange that its still to be paid for with leather though as you already get the heated seats free with that!

Suspect the leather winter pack is a glitch/typo and it will be free with that too.

Some time ago on here I talked about a friend of mine who had a Mk5 GTI from new... when he ordered it he paid for options that subsequently were standard items on vehicles built starting from just before when his was built.

The dealer told him "tough luck".

I don't know if your car is BW22 or after, but if it is, then you might also have a similar conversation....

This has nothing to do with BW22 (apart from the larger media screen) - its a change in standard spec instigated by VWUK.

Someone on here the other day said that factory build to whatever a countries 'base' specification is at the time. VW UK have said those spec changes take effect from week 22, so in theory even if the car was ordered without those options it will end up having them fitted for no extra cost. So some people might get lucky?

I remember in 2010 a lot of people who ordered Mk6 Golf SEs got the Match spec for free, but the car was still registered a SE. Then another time for some reason RNS 510 was added as a standard item by mistake to a lot of Match cars came with free and unexpected sat nav!

Good post :-)  Quick question - where did VWUK say that?

Well you know just as well as I do that they never directly said that

The BW22 assumption was made as VW UK announced in the MY16 document that an inflationary price rise was taking place. The same day as the price rise appeared on the website (24th April) that extra spec appeared too. As we know the spec changes have since been retracted

A new price list has still yet to to be published since the current 1st April addition doesn't contain 2016 changes, price rises or any spec enhancements if they are still happening

Confusion reigns... (thanks VWUK)
