  1. Well after having it so far I can say I am very pleased! Cracking little car, pulls really well from low down in every gear and keeps on pulling! Averaging around late 30's at the minute which is pretty decent for a brand new car of this type. Very impressed with the LED lights. I didn't find a need for high beam at all on a completely un lot road. The driving position is also very comfortable and the ride also isn't overly harsh at all (I spec' the sports pack). Only thing I could pick out which is a very small thing is the light switch illuminations reflect off the window into the drivers side mirror but like I say, very nit picky. The flash red is lovely!
  2. I definitely will mate along with lots of pictures! I went with the Flash Red simply because I think it matches it so well with all the red GTI styling, that and I really didn't want another black car! Everything I've read so far is positive. UK POLOS have a 100 page+ thread of owners which is worth a read!
  3. Taking delivery of my Polo GTI on the 19th October, 3 weeks earlier than expected! I'll Make sure I post some feedback once I've had enough time to have a play!
  4. Tyres are 205/40/17 but are provisionally sold pending payment and collection. I'm in Cumbernauld mate.
  5. Get where you are coming from, not sure if you're trying to discredit the 6.1 Top Gear tested the manual to or not? Or if you're saying the DSG can do that as well? I just haven't seen a test done that stated it got 6.1.
  6. As far as I'm led to believe the torque figures for the DSG's are limited to save the gearbox compared to the manual versions and that's why they can get to 62 a bit quicker than the DSG's which have been tested at 6.7s the stated time from VW.
  7. I went for the standard jacara cloth as I preferred the look of it and wasn't particularly impressed by the alcantara option. Again kept he Parabolica wheels as prefer these to the other option, can't quite remember the name of them right enough. My order is through a leasing company that my work go through so I don't actually ever receive any information from Volkswagen, just monthly updates on it my order is still on track, which it is. 29th October build date. Top Gear recently took it to a track somewhere in England in their most recent issue and the manual manager a 6.1 0-62, fending off some much more expensive and powerful cars, even beating the time of the Golf GTI! I'll be sure to post my thoughts once it's arrived.
  8. I ordered one of these back in June for my company car, due for delivery around the start of November. Appealed more to me than the fiesta since it'll be a bit more comfortable for the longer journeys if needs be and the cabin looks like a much nicer place to sit. Quite looking forward to it arriving! 3dr Manual, flash red, Discover Nav, Electric climate control, sport pack, convenience pack, parking pack, and some other bits. Pretty well specced. Got just about everything other than the pano roof and app connect.
  9. Selling these as I no longer have the car. Tyres are near new probably done around 6-7k miles and the spare is brand new. Collection only from Glasgow Scotland as nobody is in the house during the day to arrange for pick up from a courier. Sorry!! Here are some pictures. Couple of stone chips but no kerbing.
