You seriously will not be disappointed, I love mine, it's awesome, especially in this weather, where the GTI and GTDs of the world are all tramping away from the lights ;)

and after a lot of persuasion pushed them to give me a part ex for my current car which will stand until new car arrives (Dealer said this was hard as there was 2 year changes between now and new car arriving)


That's a result well done.
You might strike it luck with the changes as VW might add some goodies like they did with the GTI.

Bah, only those with poor clutch or throttle control are tramping away from lights. Oh and nasty Bridgestones!

Never tramped once in my GTI  :whistle:

I've got a feeling next year they'll add the stuff they added to the GTI/D.
That's when I'll be pulling the trigger  :grin:

You getting an R buddy.
They may well add extra spec but with it come a price increase as the GTD and GTD :cry:
Nothing's ever free in this world :sad:

I know but in theory if its already part of the car rather than being added as extras you should get more back come trade-in time.
At least that's my reckoning  :laugh:

I'm only 14 months into my GTD ownership so I'd lose too much just now trading in.
My Mrs on the other hand has just a year left of her 4 year deal so contemplating the GTI for her.
Although she is happy to take my GTD and for me to get the R  :laugh:  She's not into cars  :rolleyes:
She already took my A1 which allowed me to get my current GTD.

The current kit on a GTI is hard to ignore though.

I was quite lucky with the cost increases with my GTI, I was going to add all the bits they have recently included so it didn't really affect me  :smiley:

So guys today I made a pretty big decision, gonna cancel my current order for my GTD, the itch for an R has just become unbearable lol.]


Good man - well done - I have definitely not been tempted to do this - this thought has never entered my mind and will not bugg me throughout the ownership of my new Golf  :undecided: :huh: :undecided:
