Friend of mine tried to order a GTD this week and was told by the dealer that they couldn't order a GTD any longer but could order any other Golf, any dealers on here that could verify this?

It's still on the VW configurator site. :huh:

Yep, he was willing to put the deposit down and he said that when the dealer tried to put the order through he couldn't. He has an R at the minute but found out the week before last that his promotion includes an annual mileage of around 60k so he needs a diesel asap.

So Tracked my car this morn as it's the build week and to my surprise it's jumped to "in transit" and has already been built. So from here it's says 4 weeks to dealers which works out that it should be with my dealer by the 13th February, so the 1st March collection should be possible...Whoop Whoop!!!

I know this a little off topic but I didn't want to start a new thread just for this random question...so then I've just got a quote to get my hubs painted and the colours I can have either black or silver. Which colour do guys & girls recommend..? for my impending GTD. It's coming with 18in Negaro's...

Thanks for the advice, yeh my first thought out of the two colours was black so I think I will stick with that. It should look good against the red calipers and negaros. I was gonna change my order to the santi's but I really wanted a panroof this time round.

Don't suppose you have any pics of the hubs painted..?

guys i have to ask all you that have put in orders are these cars going to be the golf 7 facelift? i was led to believe that they had stopped production on the mk7 this is why i was told i couldnt order a carbon grey gti so had to go for the olny black one with the speck i wanted they could find  :rolleyes:

Mine will be the current model, non facelift.

I did have to be choosy about which colour I wanted as many had been discontinued.

ordered mine on the 5th November :)

are so i wasnt told bullsh!t then ,the colour carbon grey has been discontinued  :sad: the only one that was on the system didnt have what i wanted as i must have dcc as the roads are so bad round here so we found a black one on the sytsem that was allready in england i also went for the santiago,s
i had a gtd on a 65 plate the ride was very hard so i bourt some 18" standard type wheels but it didnt make any difrence so in the end i sold the car  :sad:if it had had the dcc option i would never of sold it as it had everything else that i needed so i went and bourt a 125 match its a realy nice car but it just isnt me after the gtd so i can take that back to the dealer and change it for another car as it was on the das auto so this is what i have done and bourt a new gti instead  :smiley:
