Recent GTI purchase - a few oddities

[noncompusmentis]

Hi,

A quick hello... I'm new to the board. Long time VW owner, but only recently bought myself a 6n2 Polo GTI.

There are a few oddities with my car, so I thought that I'd like to ask the more educated if the oddities are 'normal'

First up... my GTI doesn't have the red seat belts. It is fitted with black seat belts without any red detailing.

Secondly... the GTI badge on the front grill has a white 'I'. The 'G' & 'T' are both silver. It doesn't look like the 'I' has faded. Also, the edge of the grill isn't red.

The car is a 2000 'W', 5 door, with Climatronic, cloth 'One' interior.

Are the above oddities normal?

Other than that, there are a couple of scrapes to deal with on the bumpers and the car needs a good scrub to remove all the moss and to make the paint shine. The wheels are going to need a refurb and it's desperate for a service!

Cheers
andy

All normal

There's three different colour variants of belts

The I often fades to white

The red trim isn't standard - people normally add this with a trim strip or trim tape

Great stuff!

I normally end up with cars that have been fitted with bits from other random models!
