Re: New GTI

Has anyone used the Supagard on the car yet? Just wondering the best way to apply the stuff as I've never used it before.

Re: New GTI

Picked mine up to day and hit the road North from Edinburgh. Can't believe the pull in every gear, just put your foot down and away you go. Interior is clean and nice to be in. Good speed and there is a nice difference with the Sport mode enabled, not a big fan of the sound actuator but with the ...

Do you happen to know the maximum amount of names that can be put on the policy?

Re: New GTI

Car arrived at dealership this past Saturday, pick up next Sunday. Long week ahead. That is over 2 weeks ahead of estimated delivery so some positive news for those awaiting arrivals perhaps.

Re: New GTI

I've just had a confirmation that my GTI will be delivered next Thursday. It's taken 71 days and the service from Rob Noone at VW Merthyr has been great. He's even going as far as bringing the finance documents to my office and will pick them up the next day.

Interesting that you were able to ...

What is the reason for the delay?

It's around 4 weeks for delivery to dealer from the build week. However, I am in the North of Scotland so it may take longer than yours.

Couple more pix to show Flash Red in direct sunlight... though the camera has overexposed a bit.

Re: New GTI

I didn't even receive an order number and had no contact with the dealer since ordering. I should probably contact them but I'm not ready for the bad news yet.

Re: New GTI

Not yet mate, down to resign documents in a few weeks so will check then, not in much of a rush. Although the longer I leave it the more options I seem to want to add.

Nice car mate.

What is the opinion on the electronic climate control? I'm torn, I wanted it initially but in the end left it off ...

Re: New GTI

Hi All,

Ordered my new Polo back at the start of April. Note to self don't go car shopping with a hangover. Originally in red but having scoured this forum and seeing the pearl black opted to change it.

Fairly basic spec having only added the sports pack and winter pack due to not using the cruise ...
