Interesting story that. I’m sure that Vw said they expected things to improve in Q3/4 but not sure.

This arrived at my local dealers yesterday….

Couple of interesting things I noticed…
1. The door cards have “pleather” and the armrest is cloth. Isn’t it the other way round in the standard CS?
2. Really nice floor mats with a big GTI tag. Nice.

Overall, great looking car, nice presence. The cabin feels quite cosseted and seating position definitely goes lower than it did in the MK7 I think.

I’m not keen on the wheels though tbh.

The back looks really good with the spoiler and exhaust. Not sure on the colour though. I had white on my Ed 40 which I thought looked really well and contrasted well with the black bits of trim etc.

There’s an Irish plate car in the last photo just parked outside the window.

It's Ireland.

JoeGTI is that your car? Thought you was a standard CS.
? Looks great.

If so looks like I was proven wrong afterall and you've bucked the trend and got a RHD ED45 without huge delays afterall.

No not my car! Yeah I’m waiting on a standard CS which is built but not yet made it onto a boat.

There are a few more of these 45’s around the country. A guy I know picked up a white one 3 weeks ago.

That showroom 45 looks really nice.
I actually like the wheels. They look to be lightweight and they don’t have that annoying (to clean) trench behind the spokes that most VW wheels have.  :cool:
