Ah interesting, so it is not DCC at all. It is something else. I must admit we didn't notice a material difference between that the settings at all whilst the AMG tuned airmatic on the GLC43 has a huge difference between Comfort, Sport and Sport+.
Ah well, the important part is that we didn't like ...

Re: About to buy - introduction
Cannot say I share your experience with the new GTI. I came from a 2015 polo SE with 15" tyres to the new GTI with 18" tyres and love how comfy the new car is. For me it is comparable and going from a manual to a DSG has made city driving much more pleasurable and less jerky. Bear in mind ...

Re: About to buy - introduction
@Bl4ckGryph0n; it’s possible that the GTI+’s suspension was set to ‘Sport’ mode in the driver profile selection if you found the ride was overly firm. Owners of the GTI+ on the forum have commented on how compliant the suspension is ‘Normal’ mode.
The 1.0 115ps engine mated to the DSG ...

Re: About to buy - introduction
I guess it comes down to what your used to. I came from a 2015 Ibiza Cupra to the polo gti and I find the polo pretty smooth in normal mode, it is a more compliant over bumps and a comfortable car in my opinion. I do find the engine makes alot of weird groaning noises but generally sounds good to ...

Re: About to buy - introduction
The Mk.7.5 Golfs have it moved to the VW Logo too.
I may be biased, but it might be worth looking at the Ibiza and A1 too. My Ibiza Xcellence Lux has all those extras you've specified, plus ACC, keyless entry, and alcantara upholstery, and it's cheaper! :lol: The A1 also has the 1.5 TSI engine ...

Re: About to buy - introduction
It is a real shame that the Beats audio upgrade is not available on this model. Anyway, any comments or suggestions around the options or configuration?
A few people on the forum have shared their experience with the beats audio system, I think the general consensus is that you are not really ...

Re: About to buy - introduction
It's going to be your car so spec it how you want it. I specced the rear view camera and find it really useful as it gives a view that you wouldn't otherwise see without craning yout neck. Good for reversing out of supermarket car spaces.
I use my GTI+ as a daily and find it comfortable and ...

Re: About to buy - introduction
Anyway we had a test drive in the GTI+ last Saturday and were both left really disappointed. The ride in our opinion and comparison to our other vehicles was terrible. Overly firm, you can feel every little bump in the road when sitting in the back. It never felt like it settled and was just ...
