Umm yeah, all is going well, there are some niggles in the car. Small things like both side air vents buzz/rattle on rough surfaces and the clicking of the wipers every time the move intermittently when on auto is annoying and the three pot engine doesn't do well with the long gearing (Especially between 1st and 2nd. I am a fussy man though.
on a positive the MPG i've been getting is insane 44ish MPG in town and 58-63ish on the dual carriageway and in fairness the over 2k rpm refinement is great(Keep on top of the oil levels). Spec wise for my car i'm really happy with the extras, makes a cheaper car feel a bit posher, though I think my next car will definitely be either a 8th gen golf or a new ID3 mid spec battery (PCP runs out in 3 more years). The usual upgrades, fully independent rear suspension, Bigger smoother engine, better interior quality and a bit quicker.
