Looks fantastic, same as I have ordered. Are they 18's? When you picking up? Are you going to test drive?

Wheels are 19's...wrapped in 235/35/19 Dunlop rubber (think Sport Maxx ones...didn't look too closely!)

@Spamdog...

I was all giddly when i saw it behind the van! Rising Blue looks spot on. The front end is the biz. But I just had a quick walk round before getting my camera to take some pics. Quick peek inside..seats are nice. Still most annoyed about cup holder / open stowage / no rear cup holders! :rolleyes:

But I've just about bought all those bits now. Just have to wait for reg transfer to go thru so dealer can tax it, then I can pick it up and enjoy it. Have signed up for their 3 year servicing thingy too which includes new tyres. Was thinking at over ~£150+ per tyre I can maybe get at 2 sets out of the deal and that alone will pay for the whole cost over 3 years before the servicing side of things! :yes:

Can't wait till the big day.

i've had enough of K03 power...you've got a Pirelli and K04 power.

Could have done the conversion to the GTI but couldn't be arsed with it.

As soon as the pics came out I just thought I gotta have one of those (K04 + Revo + DP + HPFP = 350bhp!!!)

:D

Nope. Car is already registered in Feb as I wanted to have the 2.5% VAT rebate. Just waiting for private reg transfer and then I can pick it up. I'm hoping its later this week when they've also done the full PDI on it.
