VRs Seat Comfort?
Very comfortable I have to say, Good for long journeys, not sure why you’d need electric seats unless you routinely have different people driving your car, I’ve not changed my seating position once in 4000 miles.

Light needs to be off there shouldn’t be any airbag light up near the interior lighting

Mines was exactly the same mate off upon delivery took me a month to realise and switch it on! Guessing that’s something missed on the vehicles PDI

Do they deliver to the UK or is there a UK reseller?

KPH/MPH
Well I don’t know about anyone else but this update appears to have stabilised some of the screen issues I’d been having… normally Apple CarPlay would be black screen every 2/3 journeys, and laggy. Haven’t had any spurious park distance errors for a couple of days either… but could be a coincidence

VRS Wheel spacers
Yeah that was what I meant sorry thank you! New wheels will be 100% on the menu once the current tyres are worn down, always find it easier to justify buying new wheels and tyres at the same time lol

MK4 VRS TDI200 Overall impression
Hi all! Having read through the forum I see a lot of people have had similar issues to myself since I collected my new VRS last month. I wanted to give my impressions and opinions after a month. First off I love the car overall, feels more powerful than it says on paper, very well built cabin, comfortable seats and superb gearbox. None of the following issues put me off the car in any way it makes up for the issues easily. However the infotainment system is pants! CarPlay crashing regularly, black screen on CarPlay, logging me out my username and then not letting me log back in! It’s the one thing if I could change on the car I would! Saying that the digital dash is great, easy to use, clear and nice to use with lots of good info on it. My car is actually in at the dealership today to get a software update so fingers crossed I can update this with all the issues being resolved. I love the adaptive cruise and I have to say I quite like the lane assist (must be the only person) however one week after purchase it came up with lots of faults and all of that switched off! However a trip to the dealer confirmed it just happens occasionally (things like certain types of fence etc can cause it to freak out and switch off) which is fine as long as I know it’s not a fault. The engine on this new car is superb, very smooth, very punchy, with sporty driving I get around 44mpg but with eco mode and adaptive cruise I got over 70mpg on a medium run on a normal road, overall combined seems to be an achievable mid 50 driving mixed I seem to have been very lucky and not had the sound actuator fitted which is nice as no fake noises in the cabin. Handling is superb, very little spin and torque steer, sets up nicely on bends and body roll is minimal. Brakes are excellent very strong and fade is minimal you need to push very very hard to notice any issues. The adaptive LED “matrix” headlights are insanely bright and light up a long distance! Yes I’ve been flashed a couple of times but setting the sensitivity to high solved this issue as it dips much sooner. The dynamic rear lights do a wee dance when coming on and the scrolling indicators are very classy and “Audi”. Overall yes there are niggles and issues which can be frustrating however if you’re reading through this forum do not let it put you off, brilliant car. Thanks for reading and hopefully this helps anyone thinking of getting one, or who have similar issues

Is it worth having a rear wiper on a 2020 Octavia Hatch?
I’ve had my VRS for two weeks and live in Bonny Scotland and haven’t felt I’ve needed it as of yet, not put any sealant on it yet it’s not bad at all Water doesn’t seem to sit on the back window too much, would be an issue if you weren’t to wash the car often and it got dirty otherwise think you’ll be fine!
