    OK. It wasn't me.

    It was my father-in-law.

    He got the 1.4Sport model in Singapore with the Equipment Pack.

    The standard car comes with Park Assist, Parktronic Front/Rear, Adaptive Chassis Control and Vienna Leather with 8" Navigator Pro unit and 17" rims.

    The Equipment Pack adds motorized driver's seat, sunroof and 18" 225 width rims/tyres and bixenon autoswivelling with LED DRL.

    You don't want to know the price in Singapore.

    He is trading in his Mk V GTI because it is getting on a bit and he doesn't need the added oomph these days but even so, it does get out of the lights pretty convincingly.

    They said the car is expected to arrive in 1.5 months.

    He chose black pearl with the dark red Vienna leather.

    I don't think I could choose that leather myself (and we probably won't get the choice too here anyway) but I am definitely keen to see some pics on how it turns out.

    Is it more common that more things come as standard in Asia? Getting all that gear as standard on the GTI in australia would be amazing!

    When I chose leather for my Tiguan in Australia, they seemed to indicate there was a choice of color. But I went for black. The other choice was a white / creamy finish I think.

    The red leather is called Marrakesh or something. I've seen something similar in Audis and BMWs. You can see that option in the Golf configurator in the VW UK site.

    I am old enough to remember when the Commodore first came out you could get grey, blue, green, dark red and brown interiors.



    The Marrakesh leather is the brown leather interior.

    That was when luxury meant velour upholstery.
