About to order GTi Clubsport

[savage16v]

Hi all,

Thought i would join up as i am about to order a Clubsport 

Spec we are going with it:

Solid white with black roof
Bucket seats
19" Brescia wheels


Currently have a Golf R on lease, and fancy something different once it goes back.
Tried all the hot hatches and none of them have made us want to buy it, then spotted the CS and really like it.

I will be keeping an eye on peoples posts as and when they arrive, will also be looking to retro fit the armrest and rear heaters.

Got a few goodies on the R which i can swap across on to the CS when the time comes as well.

Have had a couple of GTi's over the years, a nice MK1 and a couple of nice MK2's, plus a MK2 Rallye.
Very excited to get my hands on a CS

Congrats on your choice of car.


Can't wait to see some pics, and will be good to hear your views on the 2 cars.

On my second day with the car and having ordered one without actually seeing it in the flesh or sitting in it ever before, I can honestly say that the cabin feeling is beyond any expectations... The alcantara bits, the steering wheel *oh-my-god-that-wheel* the buckets and all the bespoke details of the interior just set it apart from any other competitor in that price range and much higher I dare say. The only place I'd imagine that gives an equivalent sense of premium sportiness (no cheapo aftermarket interior mods) is probably a GT3. But the Clubsport has just the perfect blend of a sports special AND a lux cruiser at the same time it's amazing.

I was after a car that would make me drive the nuts of it the moment I saw it and right now I don't think it can get much better than this...

Great review  Scanesare and good choice savage. Can't wait to get mine either. I think it will be a special car as it is a real limited edition with some very special features. THe pics on the Internet of the seats look amazing.

I thought all 150 Clubsports had sold out?

Anyone managed to squeeze any kind of discount yet on a CS ?

I managed 3.9% back in April when I put my order in. I still don't have any confirmed build date yet
