I didn't order DCC and am regretting it... I've got a bit tired of the hard ride during a couple of motorway drives on my 19"s, although I'm trying to put a few miles on the engine before really opening it up so perhaps I'll care less about the ride when I start using a bit more throttle...

I'm running on 19s without DCC and I think the ride is perfect. It's all a matter of opinion though, that's the only problem. If I had the spare cash and could go back to the day I ordered I still wouldn't have specced it though because I think the ride is that good as standard.

I ordered it with 18s, so would DEFINITELY have had it with 19s.

For me, the car is a daily driver, jack of all trades so I want soft comfort and hard sports.

If I was buying another new Golf, DCC would be the first option I'd tick.  I test drove cars without it, specified it on my car, and the difference is noticeable.  I'm impressed.  I also drive a Range Rover, and the low speed ride in my Golf isn't far off the RR, seriously.  OK I have 18 inch wheels on the Golf but I'm "sold" on DCC.
mk7 GTI now sold.  Gone but not forgotten.

I agree, the DCC must be better now?!. Think the ride in Comfort and my 19" inch, is smother than my old Volvo V70.. :grin: :grin:

Running 19s with DCC on my R. Almost coming up to a year ownership now and I would spec it again. Mostly in Normal mode with occasions on Comfort.

If you buy a GTI i think that you should buy all performace part that VW offer from start (DCC, PP,)  :wink:

As the Performace Pack! , in Sweden VW have understand that and only sell the Performance Pack to all the GTIs... :wink:

Am I a little cheeky now?  :wink: :grin:..Sorry guys..
