Collected my Race blue VRS Friday

Featured Replies

I collected my VRS TSi hatch late Friday afternoon after what seemed an eternity (in reality 8 weeks)  :clap: .

 

Then straight home and loaded up with all sorts of motorsport paraphernalia, tool box, impact guns etc, then off on the 100 mile drive to Gloucester to drop my wife off, then onward to my sons place in Chepstow.

 

V/early start Saturday morning to get to the rally venue (my son was competing in my old rally car for the first time), got the car covered in mud-dust etc.

 

End of the event back to Chepstow to unload the rally car/van, back to Gloucester to collect my wife then home to Telford.

 

All up 400 miles in the first 24 hours and the car now looks as if she's a year old and not 24 hours since collection.

 

First impressions, LOVING IT  :sun:.

 

Time to get the pressure washer and snow foam out now and start the big clean!

 

Photo's to follow.

Nice. Way to spend the first day of ownership the smell of castrol r in the morning can't be beaten. I'm collecting my tdi vrs this coming Friday and I can't wait to get the polish and wax out

Just remember when it comes to selling up, send the V5 off your self. :ph34r:  :x 

It's good to get a few miles under your belt early on, glad your pleased with her. :)

That's got to be the best way to spend the first few days of ownership with the vRS very nice

Looking forward to seeing the photo's

I just spent all day "proper" cleaning her (photo's tomorrow), pressure wash then snow foam, two bucket wash, towel dried, coat of paint sealant then two coats of high grade Carnauba wax, she's got a lovely deep shine now and the metal flake seems to "pop" when the sunlight catches it right.

 

Dalefc89, I live Muxton/Lilleshall side of Telford.

 

On the way to work this evening it was nice to have the sunroof open and enjoy the late afternoon sunshine :sun:.

One thing I did discover on my journeys over Friday and Saturday was that the sound generator really was getting on my nerves, first job this morning was to disconnect it!

Turn it off on the personalised option?

Look forward to the pics, :)
