Just ordered today my first ever new car; a 2013 MK7 GTI...  ;D

I picked limestone grey Z1, DSG, performance pack 230ps and satnav

I should have it next week what was interesting was the free insurance, tax and servicing for 3 years- very impressed

Took the manual out on demo all day today- wow didn't want to give it back! Sport mode is awesome! And it has a blue motion stop start which is quite unnerving at times!

Picks to follow this week  8)

I'd been to the Performance packs comes with hid and LED rear lights. Mind you I was also to they wouldn't be around till the end of the year.

Anyway, congrats , Good fun driving something out of the showroom with 3km on the clock.  8)

Thanks guys

Ordered here in the uk- after years of farting about with older stuff I've decided to do the whole VW options plan (one lump sum, same payment- new car every 3 years free servicing etc)

The performance pack was a no brainer at only ?980 extra 10bhp and a better diff

Factory things are collision/fatigue assist (stops linear accidents under 19mph and corrects steering on motorway etc) HIDs led rears and led fog lights, park assist etc

They threw in sat nav, servicing for 3 years and the insurance gig as a deal on the day

UK price with all those options was ?28,978 on the road. So around $57,956 nzd

They called me and let me take it for a spin before it's ready for pick up! Weird how it has plates although it's not actually registered yet!

Love it!!!

Too much power is almost enough.

evo say set up an individual driver profile keep sport settings for steering, engine and ESP, but set the suspension to normal, which allows the car to move around a little, you can still place it accurately but can throw it around a bit more

and that other hot hatches should be wary in the group test   ;D

I have ACC as an extra so the driving modes over DCC

The best handling FWD I've ever driven- this with a map will be immense
