I’ve had Mich pilot sport 4s popped onto my base GTI ( I have a tyre contract and I managed to somehow wear the originals down to 2mm). They replaced the standard tyres and the difference is definite. Much better grip.

I’ve also always been a fan of the ps4s. I found they did much more mileage before they were worn, too. Especially compared to the p zeros and potenzas I had as stock tires.
Current - MK8 CS - Dolphin Grey, DCC, Black Estoril, Rear Camera, Sunroof, Winter Pack, Harmon Kardon

Previous and sorely missed - MK7.5 GTI Perf, Indium Grey, Brescias, Art Velours, Rear Camera

👍 the chap at my local ATS Euromaster said they were significantly better tyres than the original ones. A rated vs C rated, whatever that means.

New to the forum and has really helped…. I thought it was just me.

Ordered Clubsport Dolphin Grey, DCC, 19 in aderlaide and upgraded stereo and winter pack.

Ordered Oct 21, no date as of yet. I guess I am not the only one.

Currently have 7.5 White silver GTI with performance pack. I drive 35k miles per year. Not sure it will survive this ridiculous wait. Car on 136k miles, anyone know how long I’ll be able to go for.

In your shoes I’d be finding a lowish mileage 7.5 TCR for circa £30k -£33k as a mile muncher. Excellent spec as standard and no random built in tech gremlins.

You're definitely not the only one Blaze04, hang in there.  As for your Mk7.5 GTI enduring until your new car turns up.  If you look after it, I think you should be fine if my current Mk6 GTI is anything to go by. :wink:

Was the 1 year order anniversary of my Clubsport this week (ordered March 2022), rang the dealer for an update.  Unsurprisingly the update hadn't changed from the official one back at the start of the new year. When I was informed that my unconfirmed build week 22/2023 had been ditched - so my car order still has the tag of "vapourware" after 12 months.  :grin:  Personally if my order turns up this year I'll be impressed, but I'm not expecting it to.

Mk8 GTI Clubsport | Pure White | DCC | Black Estorils | HUD | a fair few options

Previous: Mk6 GTI | Candy White | Manual | DCC | Dynaudio | Cruise | Winter Pack | Lux Pack | Rear Camera & F/R Parking Sensors

Well, for the first time in months today I received an unconfirmed build week In middle May. Not going to hang my hat just yet, it has moved before.

Thank you to everyone who has commented, appreciate it.  :smiley:
