Front bumper was cracked, front headlamp had deep scratches. Every alloy had the "white worm" is it? Filthy dirty outside.
A check this, it was a DSG without paddles on the steering wheel!
no golf clubs at all:
gadge, on some early dsg's the paddles were an option.

cars without highline (like mine) dont have buttons on the wheel and the dsg is semi auto even the ones without paddles. often i use the gear knob to knock up and down the gears when doing loads of corners.
oh and i had my cam belt changed in may at about 24k although the dealer said firstly there was no chance it could be the cam before 60k, then a tech looked at it after also saying no way, after 2 days it was the cam belt!! :happy2:

Before getting my sept 05 gti with paddles and mfsw I drove a gti without paddles, can't remember if it had mfsw or not.
