I wonder when that change takes effect?

....Usually in the next new build - July production line this year but called "build 09".

Ordering now should be safe.

There's to be no Interlagos cloth any longer either - Only leather :sad:. So much for paying homage to the original GTI!! Feckers!!

Must be a mistake. When you build it, you can see they've take a 3D model of a base golf and applied a few GTi textures to it. The wheels look like 14s too. It's just a very poor web app, at least that's my thoughts. I doubt they'd change the grill. The seat cloth, perhaps given the new GTi probably won't appear for a while after the new Golf comes out, they've decided to stop ordering in bulk loads of fabric for the GTi Interlagos cloth, instead using leather - perhaps that works out cheaper in the short run. Use up all the old stuff before the new models appear.

The more I look at the VW website, the more errors I see!
Like it says the GTI has foglights, but the Ed30 none.

And when you click on 'Phaeton', a Vauxhall Chevette appears.

Really, those web designers need shooting

(Or was that a dream?)

Likely a mistake, the cartooney cars on the website look rubbish anyway. Nothing better than being old fashioned and going to dealer and getting a steal...or robbed. Whatever. Loving the interlagos in my GTI, never a fan of leather, although it would not put me off.
