Great pictures

I think the interior looks stunning

I'm looking forward to getting a decent fun hatch to drive once more.....it's been a long time

Owners who have received theirs sound nothing short of amazed with the way it drives, can't wait to pick mine up also  :smiley:

Belvedere is indeed a 7.6kg forged wheel, confirmed by the manufacturer itself (Fuchs)  :

http://www.fuchsfelge.de/index.php?id=1188&L=1

That's super light even by aftermarket, not just OEM, standards. And to be offered as stock on the Clubsport is hugely impressive, suits the character of the car just perfect.  In comparison, Leon Cupra sub8 wheels weigh 11,8 kg and are made by Ronal.

I second the 11,5 kg weight of the Brescia (no link of them but VW part number is: 5G0 601 025 CL), they are clearly a design, not race/sport wheel, and even that "design" is highly subjective imo.  Why would anyone even pay to add a whopping 4 kg of unsprung mass on every corner on a track focused car like the Clubsport is beyond me.

Nice pics. I assume that's csg?  There also looks like space for the radar city break? I was under the impression that the front splitter didn't allow it.

yes DSG. and yes that is the emergency city break at the front. What gets deleted is the front parking sensors but the city break stays.

I'm in Sweden and here the Bi-Xenons are an extra but I think the UK spec has them as standard. Other than the DSG and bucket seats, rest of added options were DCC adaptive ride, Dynaudio Hi-Fi, Discover Pro Nav, rear parking sensors with camera and electrically folding mirrors.

On the other hand, cruise control with city brake assist and winter pack are standard here.
