Wow!! shiney!!!! congrats GTI2RocR

first pictures to really do rising blue justice, must resist

Nice one GTI2RocR. what were your first impressions on seeing it in the flesh?
im resisting seeing mine until pick up day.
The silver was a very close second on my list!

tell me that the wheel are the 18" and not the 19...
It's very nice also in blue. Enjoy it!

congrats GTI, looks great. I dont know how you can go and look at it and not need to take it

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!

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!

Can't wait till the big day.

Wow! Wigit's right!

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!!!)

I was hoping they would put Pirelli's on
My dealer said they didnt do the 3 year servicing deals on scirocco's ...the lying b**ger!

Bring on march 3rd!

Congrats gti2rocr, looks mad as hell .You better be carefull out there and try not to go too crazy .
Where there any other rocco-r's that where in the shipment else than yours (i.e white or black one)?
And again congrats mate , try not to be too tempted to brake into the lot and take that car out for a spin

Congrats m8, you've definitely chosen the right colour, looks the dog's dangglies ...and that could easily be mine, but mines going into production this week i think, im well excited for you and for me and for everyone alse who's ordered one of these sexy beasts

ii think ITG Maxogen intake and job done GTI2rocR especially if plan is to run Revo code

Congrats GTI2 the car looks sweet in Rising

Are you waiting for March 1st as well ??

These pics actually make me think about whether black was the right colour

Very nice

Nah think i'll go EVOMS instead - i prefer the cone filter look than foam type. and Revo is defo...will take it to Kev/Carl at Daventry to sort.

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.
