Another video from dealer, and according to him VW have said that there was an "error" in the press release regarding the black roof..

No sh*t Sherlock :laugh:

I'd be more concerned that the black cars are actually coming with a black  roof, I find that very bizarre lol

Hi its Red.

If VW are going to comp us for no black roof , let's all complain! Or ask for a carbon fibre wrap for the roof which would look better than the promised paint. Personnel I wouldn't want it painting by the dealer now anyway.
 Of course those with a black car have got what they wanted a black roof ! So can't understand them complaining about the look of the car !
Press release did say it would have grey wheels also how often do you get free spec of a manufacturer e.g. Sight and light pack and city brake and mats cos they weren't supposed to have them! Normally they would come back to you and say there had been a price increase!!!

Happy driving or for some flipping!!!

Look great in that video, bet you can't wait

I don't think it was painted anyway, I believe it was a sticker, so if it's going to be wrapped I wouldn't want the dealer doing it. They would get it done for peanuts same when they try to refurbish wheels at the lowest cost. The white one looks great without so they will look great in red too I'm sure.

If some really want it done just take it a specialist

Let's start high how about 2 year free services and free 5 year warranty . In reality this could possibly cost VW nothing. It would also only benefit those who bought them to keep and not those flipping for a profit.

Thanks for the videos it was good to see how the red one looks . I'm with you I like the way it looks and auto wipers and free mats are extras worth having😄.

As soon as I hear back from my dealer I'll post VWs reply, and I've spoken to. VW people waiting for CSS and they've mentioned that it was a toss up between white and red, and now wish they had gone red :)

I wonder what else is missing or has not being removed from the production cars compared to the cars reviewed or the actual spec of the car that did the record.  :undecided: Things not mentioned so far like the  65mm exhaust, No bonnet damper, Aluminium brake bells and more negative camber , Alloy front subframe, No centre armrest etc etc.

Mk6 GTI  &  Mk1 GTI 
34 years of GTI ownership.
