That's right, only once your car is built, your dealer should be able to email it to you.

Did VW's pr department write the article ? I like my GTI (mk6) but talk about dismissing past issues with the lightest stroke of a pen.

What the hell are yous on about?? The MK7 Golf was awarded the "title" Wheels car of the year. Ask them if they wrote the article or how much they paid!

I think people have to remember that Wheels are rating the car, not the brand, not the after sales service.

They are just looking at the car which is great.

It's Wheels Car Of The Year award, and not car of the decade award, so why should history come into the equation when picking what car was judged the best in that year.

what we are on about is the writing style, I don't doubt the quality of the car, I thought the style was over the top in my opinion.
Why should I go ask them ? I thought people were allowed to express their opinions in this forum.

because it would be nice to know if the improvements they have made between models also addressed issues that the mk6 had,
such as water pump and inlet manifold failures. and of course DSGs

Because the joy of owning the 'best car of the year' will be soured if the dealer experience doesn't match the quality of the car.
