Re: To extend or not to extend that is the question.

The guy who sold me mine told me that any remaining warranty purchased can be transferred to a new vehicle if not used, as I said, he sold it to me - so whether or not that is true I don't know as I was too stupid to check.

Re: New GTI

Pressed plates are only legal if made from reflective materials, given the number of incorrectly spaced, incorrect fonts, sizes and position of screws I see on a daily basis however, you'd be damn unlucky to get pulled over unless your driving style happened to catch the attention of PC Plod.

Re: New GTI

Anyone having issues with Windows? When I try to simultaneously close both front windows the passenegrr one goes down about 3/4 stops and the drivers goes up - bizarre.

Re: New GTI

Got it back yesterday, they' refurbished it FOC. Nice to be able to drive the car properly now instead of fannying around like some snail.

Re: New GTI

Took my wheel back regarding the scratched alloy and they've sent it back to their sub contractor who claim that the marks are 'tyre soap' (pull the other one) anyway we shall see when it comes back Monday.

Re: New GTI

Absolutely gob smacked and heartbroken that a tyre fitter could be so careless, I have this gouge running around a third of the wheel, refurb required, it's going back and they will fix it I make sure of that. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160211/2c5e911509180fdebb9b9f28896dbd49.jpg Sent from my...

Re: New GTI

Had to buy a new tyre, there was another nail further out :(, VW can't fit me in till March! What the hell! So took it to a local garage who can't get the tyre for 7 days but it'll have to do as everyone else I've spoken to couldn't get hold of them. The space saver is ugly as hell.

Re: New GTI

Thanks, just spoken to a guy who used to look after my cars and he's willing to repair too, I have a service plan with VW that includes punctures so hopefully they say yes
