Well, it should have… DCC, Area View Cameras, HUD and… Dynamic self-levelling centre caps! 😎
Pretty excited about getting this car.

You saved the best until last - the dynamic caps!  :cool:
Are they dealer fit or factory?

I’d be pretty excited too  :smiley:

Looking forward to seeing some more photos after the car is collected

Happy collection day for tomorrow, anyone who is getting a new 25 plate.

5 months on, curious as to the values, I tapped my reg into WBAC. Pleasantly surprised at £31,265. Standard GTI in black with 2400 miles. Not bad depreciation at all

That’s an amazing price after 5 years! Is it really only 2400 miles? Or 24K?
