What colours have people ordered ?

Took delivery of Kings red with the Adelaides fitted.

Did you have a Mk7 golf before?

Previously been driving a 2015 WRX STI so the ride in the Golf is much more comfy even with the 19” and having the dsg makes it more enjoyable in traffic. Over the past years my wife has had a mk5 / 6 and 7 gti plus mk7 r so will see in time how it compares the past GTI’s. It’s certainly less firm than than R and although less power there’s enough to have fun albeit very limited in the time I’ve had the car. As the weathers not been great will have to wait to see how it compares.
As with previous comments the settings get a bit of getting used to which I,m still doing but there not as bad as many reports suggest. Do agree on the lane assist being to intrusive so switch this off as soon as start the car.

Lane assist is just a fact of life with modern cars unfortunately. Same if you bought a Kia.

One thing I'd be looking at, while you can't turn it off and have it permanently stay off forever, I've seen BMW sorts talk about being able to turn down the steering intervention to a low level. It keeps coming on but at least doesn't try to crash you into cyclists so much. Not sure if the Golf will let you do that.

PS congrats on your new motor - I am jealous!

White!

Interesting.

Interesting.

Interesting indeed.

That’s a German mk8 Clubsport. Fortunately, Lime Yellow isn’t a colour option on UK mk8 performance models. It just looks wrong IMO.

[McCrae1971]

Not choice I’d go for but each to there own.

[king monkey]

I think you’d have to be quite brave to go for it even if it was an option over here.

Just braved the VW configurator.
3 colour options on the R, 3!? Love how even the 'free' colour has the mysterious 'additional costs may apply'.
Options list is the usual level of helpful too, just give us some more money, we can't be tasked with explaining any of these!

[king monkey]

Yeah. Only blue, black and white for the R I believe.
