My New Toy

Post by Nobby »

Picked up my new toy yesterday after 4 months of waiting, I can't stop driving it :hyper:

The car is fantastic :D
I'm just running in for the moment so I've not even been close to giving it the berries yet, but even without trying, I love it !

Still hard to believe it's a 1.4 :eyepop: & the DSG box is the muts! very pleased I specced it indeed :D

I guess I'm lucky, I got the 2010 model even though I ordered in March,
The mirror down works on mine !,
I got the DRLs turned off by the salesman in 30 seconds flat with no grief whatsoever :nod:
(Indicator method like it says in the manual)

Took a couple if pics but the weather was not good this morning, maybe I'll post some better ones later 8)

The car looks mint!!! Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy :bigthumb:

The 17" alloys look really great by the way. I think it's 'cos I'm so used to looking at photo's of the Scirocco with Interlagos.

The new style steering wheel is suiting the car well.

Have fun, but don't hit the red line too soon :revs:
