She was a brand spanker when i got her about 6 weeks ago  :smiley: 500 miles on the clock now.

17" Monza's, iPod Prep, Armrest, Anthracite Leather, Xenons, Winter Pack and Black Pearl Paint.

Wife uses her for work most day's, i get her evenings and weekends, oh and whenever it needs fuel or cleaning !  :laugh:

I actually like detailing, and love it when the car gleams.


edit

Forgot, DSG as well.

Went for the 17's as I test drove a GTI with them on and then a friends who had the 17's, and found them to make the ride a bit softer.

I agree they do look a lot better at 18", but I had 18's on my S4 and kept kerbing them at £300 each. Where I live the roads are quite narrow at some places and you have to mount the kerb to get past, having that extra sidewall makes all the difference. The wife "crunched" 2 wheels in the first week of ownership with the S4, not a mark on these in almost 6 weeks! Well worth it IMO.

Didn't go for the Sat Nav, couldnt justify that amount of cash as I have a £100 TomTom One that does a great job.  :wink:

You'll like Megs, its soo easy to use.

Very nice NewGolf  :cool: Those Monza's look super clean  :cool:

It's nice to see another black GTi fighting back against the ever increasing Candy White brigade  :grin: :grin:

My only regret is not getting the Highline computer, the dealer advised me at the time that there was no real difference in the 2. Boy was he wrong.

I resolved this by getting VagCom, does a lot more!
