Feels like I've been waiting forever. but my new car arrived today, luckily I got to see it before they cleaned it up.
Had a good look at the new polo too, and the golf plus
Just cant wait now, I've been told I may have it as early as tomorrow but if not it'll be tuesday.
James.

Nice motor mate, so envious!
17"s come on standard but you have the option of having 18" if you wanted...iirc.

Yeah they are 17's. I didn't want the 18's already heard of stories about laquer peeling apparently have a different finish, also got plans for other alloys so would just be wasting ££'s that could have been spend on xenons
And yeah, the new polo is taller than the old one. not sure why, they are both base models.
The golf plus is well ugly, shame I didn't get a pic of them, although I'm sure they will sell a lot of them.
Cardiff volkswagen had a number of deliverys today, including gti's, new polos, golf plus and a few 4-motion golfs.

You wanna swap for a Polo GTi?
Nice car - did you spec leather? I would have chosen xenons over 18" Monzas too, good call

Didn't go with leather, never really liked it, although the beige looks nice, I always find cloth seats more comfy, you dont slide off them, fine when it's hot in the summer, they dont get stretch and look a lot newer 3 years down the line. plus it doesnt make a whole if you accidently stab it by leavbing your keys in your pocket

Looks fantastic
What alloys are you thinking of changing to?
