Looks lush Steve. Was the Polo not doing anything for you? I love mine, great little car, but i still hanker for a Golf as well.  :sad1:

Oh no, now I've got a thread to follow which will show me exactly what is possible with my new GTD - this is going to be expensive!!

Great choice of spec - you were lucky to get the Bluetooth upgrade, although it is now standard UK spec apparently the factory routinely "forget" to install it. The dealer told me they end up with about 50/50 with and without.

Too many doors and the wrong type of engine. I much prefered the red GTI track beast, Cant believe it's gone for this.  :rolleye:

Didn't he trade the Polo GTI for this?

Funnily enouhg I'm liking that  :happy2:  2 months or so and counting for me.........

The drivers seat rather doesn't look to healthy though.

Did you get a SPS unit with the REVO software. Do they need to take out the ECU to write it?  Can I ask how much the remap is?  I always use Simon @ Emaps, but I'm thinking I'd quite like it switchable is time?

Enjoy :driver:

Lovely shiny new motor Steve :happy2:

How long can you resist the lure of VC's well lubed slippery slope? :signLOL:

Looking nice, shame about the seat bolster so early on. Hopefully abit of heat and massage will reduce the creasing.

Tis a peach Mr P and can't wait to get that Carbon flaking in the sun!  :party:

I would imagine the pic has been taken just after Steve had finished installing the RVC as the bolster was spot on when we collected it!  :happy2:

Great looking car mate. Was looking at these before I got the mk5 but were out of my price range. Maybe next time.
