Yep, the dancing lights were standard but I think the “smart dipping lights” were a MY 19 standard feature.
 
At the time I definitely did NOT want keyless as there were many scare stories going around about theft.

Now my car is a little less attractive to the bad boys I would like it. I had it as standard on my previous GTI which was one of the very last pre-facelift cars.

It still slightly bugs me that VW messed around with orders and specs during the WLTP debacle. The least they could have done for all our delayed orders was build them all as MY 19 specs.

I prefer to think of myself as an ethical person but clearly corporate VW thinks differently.

Treat others as you would wish to be treated is a great roadmap for life.

Happy 4 years Adam T7 🎈🥂

With that many oil changes at that low a mileage that is one pampered car.

Hopefully many more happy years lie ahead

😂 My wife tells me I love that car more than I love her, how wrong can she be?

I love my next door neighbours car more.

Seriously, it’s a keeper.
