Re: red letter question
i have a horrible feeling they have the wrong car - all the paper work I signed has said 160ps but having seen that little red I, I'm nervous thinking they have the 122! will be furious if the dealer has cocked it up

Re: red letter question
Check paper label next to spare in boot on right side in mine. If 160ps it should say 118kw. But should be all red TSI letters. Good luck!
Re: red letter question
Thanks for the response, i rang the dealer in a right panic and turns out I've made a complete fool of myself haha! the car I saw wasn’t mine!!! (exact same spec rising blue, 18's, front fogs so an innocent mistake ) but one letter was different on the reg - confirmed that 160ps is all red on the TSI lettering - red I is for the 122ps... pick up tomorrow a.m - cant wait
