Finally :)
« on: 18 March 2008, 17:13 »
So after a long three months wait constintley wasting all my time on vortex, youtube and this forum looking at pictures of R32s, watching videos of R32's and trying to find it any information i can about the R32 i thought it would end today. Got a call from the dealer today saying the car is in Gib and i can go down to have a look at it if i wished and i could clear the balance at the same time. Got there, sat with my dad as we arranged methods of payment etc and i just heard that sound of the V6 from outside. Got up, ran outside to see this.



(Pic taken with my K850i Mobile...sorry for quality)

After everything going so well over the past three months the smallest thing happens to annoy me. Its a short week this week over here due to easter and stuff so they will not have enough time to register the car by the end of the week and let me enjoy it for easter. They close on thursday half day and re open on tuesday. They have not received some certificate or something from VW either which wont allow them to register the car either. Abit annoying being able to see the car and sit in it but not even being able to drive it. Just a few more days left...hopefully next week tuesday or wednesday the R32 will be in my hands....

Oh and as i sat in the recaro seats i thought to myself they are much much more comfortable than the bucket seats in the GTI. Obviously thats my opinion. Im quite a big/chubby guy and the sides of the seatsin the GTI used to like squeeze my love handles lol xD

Spec includes Recaro's, RNS 510 Sat Nav, MFSW with Highline, Parking Sensors, Centre Armrest, Alarm.

Thanks for reading!

Whats your opinion on the omanyt's??? I was gutted when i ordered mine... mainly due to the fact that there were not many good images about. But once I had seen them in the flesh... they stood out alot more than the zolders!! Glad i got them instead now! :grin:

Trust you to post at the same time as me!! :tongue:
