Re: Any one ordered the new facelift GTI?

My GTI arrived at the start of the week with no cover. I assume we will get a replacement when the Golf ones are issued. Congratulations on your new car, what colour and spec did you go for. I guess it will be added to the list of service items once they ahve sorted out a replacement for all these ...

Re: What did you and your Polo do today?

Thanks ad_182_uk that is really useful. I will have a look around and track one down. Good tip about the bolt ( think I have a box of bolts) so should find something if required. Don’t blame you on getting one with some mods already down.So wallet wise it’s win, win. I wanted to treat myself to a ne...

Re: What did you and your Polo do today?

Well I think my Polo was being built this week, so decided to get organised and order my mats. So the order is In with Autostyle, so should appear in next few weeks. I have gone black with red stitching along with new look logo.

Then I think I’ll be ready for car.

Re: What did you and your Polo do today?

Altered the OEM aerial by unscrewing the sticky up rubber part (that catches the tailgate when opened). Replaced with a shark fin overlay that uses a small attachement method to maintain the radio signal. Secures down with 3m double sided tape so totally reversible should you require. Tbh looks lik...

Re: Any one ordered the new facelift GTI?

I appreciate that we are all Polo GTI converts on this thread, but just thought I would mention. This weeks Autocar has a small “review/first drive” on the Polo. Pretty complimentary, usual points mentioned which we have all heard before and mention of annoying touch controls. But overall 4 out of 5...

Re: 2022 r line polo

After seeing your post I had to check out the configurator and spec a RLine up. It does seem crazy you can touch £30 with this Polo, but that adds about £5,500 of options. Some you can realistically drop IMHO but as we all know we are all different with different priorities or requirements. I think ...

Re: Any one ordered the new facelift GTI?

Managed to get through to my dealer today and had a nice long chat with the sales guy. My order is now confirmed (status 20) with a build week of 22 (should be the first week in June). So hopefully only a couple of weeks and it should at least get built. Though life being life, always a chance it c...

Re: Any one ordered the new facelift GTI?

They definitely seem to be messing about with the configurator. As mentioned above the price has disappeared and the colour choice seems to be full polo range (but any non GTI colours it doesn't give a price and also the wheel menu choice has disappeared too. Anyway, I did obtain some information on...

Re: Any one ordered the new facelift GTI?

@SRGTD. Yep. I had a 2015 model. In some respects I miss the simplicity of the car. I sold it to an Evesham dealership and now see it being driven around Stratford-upon-Avon. Looks like a retired gentleman has bought it. Oh and just had an update, car has confirmed build of week 24. Ordered in Janu...

Re: 2022 Polo Led Strip DRL

Yes, think you’re right about being dimmer and from my side also agree appears tacky. Hopefully the fully illuminated grille will stay off cars forever, but can’t help think that it will be the latest fad/design touch for cars going forward esp electric cars.

Re: 2022 Polo Led Strip DRL

@SRGTD. I’m with you on the light strip.

First thing I will do is to switch it off when I get my Polo….I just hope the info I have is correct and it is switchable.

I’ve seen several golfs and it just distracts in my view. Don’t like the look and won’t be imposing it on anyones rear view mirror

Re: Any one ordered the new facelift GTI?

@airwolf Many Congratulations, that is great news. Looking back through thread I see you ordered 2 weeks before Christmas, so allowing for week after Christmas, that was 3 weeks and if you are picking up in 2weeks then that looks like week 20 of 2022. So around 23 weeks in total. (Incl 8weeks approx...
