Looks good Ross - sunroof is a nice option. Many other options other than the rear parking sensors?

As you say, the Sat Nav can be retrofitted - exactly what I did with mine. Made a very worthwhile update to the car.
Is yours DSG or manual? I was looking for a manual, and ended up with a DSG - was really surprised by how well it drove!

Either way, bet you can't wait to collect it!

Shame about the wheel bearing, at least it's gone under warranty  :happy2:

Well done for getting out and enjoying it, too many people on here scared to put a few miles on and enjoy their motors  :laugh:

Nice car mate.

I have a steel grey also, just love the way it glistens in the sun, perfect choice of colour.

I can see mine being a keeper as its simply the perfect all rounder  :happy2:

Get a Whooosh areal to replace that RC style one currently fitted  :signLOL: made the rear look far much better IMO

 :driver:

Gonna get a new polo aerial as they look alot smoother.

Ordered up a recaro fitted seat cover And a 13" front plate for the new smooth grille.

fitted 'xenon' white headlight and full beam bulbs which modernise it a bit and also fitted led number plate lights.

Gonna get led puddle lights to finish it off.


Nice mods  :happy2:

You getting the arial from Whooosh?
Got mine the other day and im smitten  :party:
