Got ours at 5.30pm on the 1st! and we haven't stopped smiling like mad people since -  :grin:

Its:
5 door in Tornado Red
18" Monza Alloys
6 CD player in armrest
Winter Pack
Electric sunroof

Decided to get one 3 weeks before the 1st Sept as we found out that our first baby due March '07 and i decided that our VW Lupo was not big or safe enough - sounded like a good enough reason to me!

Bought from local and they were great, even got a discount of £900 off them and a great trade in price - there is a god! 

Will post some pictures later.

Found out that mines gonna be around at end of September - pretty basic spec since I cant really afford even that! 

3 door in Tornado Red
DSG

I've had mine 6 months and it's superb.  I had a a mk4 150 previously, so the extra oomph takes getting used to.

New GTi's seem to be fairly rare, I went up to Edinburgh last weekend and didn't see any during the 350 mile journey!

It's a fabulous car and red is an excellent choice.

Enjoy. :smug:

I had a Mk4 150bhp also - not bad but think this will wipe the floor with it ;-).  In fact it will be my fifth golf:

Mk 1 1.1 in lemon yellow when I was 20
Mk 2 1.8GL in black when I was 24
Mk 1 GT1 sportline in red when I was about 29
Mk 4 1.8T GTi in Metallic dark blue when I was 34

Since im 38 I spose it had to come around again!  All cars were very competent, looking for competent and cracking drive with this one!

Think Clarkson summed it up perfectly when he said it is all things to all men - take it everyone has downloaded the Top Gear review vid from Racingflix.com...

I called the dealer again today - apparently mine was build week 37 - so was built last week and is now awaiting assignment... once its assigned he will have a delivery date for me.  Has anyone had theirs delivered from week 33, 34, 35 yet - just wondering when it might turn up especially since MOT on my trade in expires on 8 October!
