Nice, I suppose you'll be posting pictures tonight ?

Bit late on the pictures! Planning to do some propper shots soon but here is a teaser

MK7 103TSI Highline
35% Tint
Signature PPQ Plates QMK07
Metalic Black
Panoramic Sunroof
Black Vienna Leather Upholstery
Rotary 18" Wheels wrapped in Pirelli Cinturato's

Also have the original 17" Dijon Highline rims in the garage to be sold if anyone is keen let me know!



Have an order in for some chemical guys products to take care of the paint and some LED numberplate lights coming in off ebay

Looks nice!

Shame u are in Brissie. Would have been interested in the rims. Looks really nice.

[cathaldinneen]

Really nice !!!

So you're the person who reserved that plate I tried that combo on PPQ a few months back and it was taken. I'm from New Farm and take the story bridge every day so I'll keep an eye out for you !

Where did you get the tint done and would you recommend ? There's a guy on another Golf forum that's selling Genuine LED tail lights for $75 but there have been some issues with errors been displayed on the MFD. have you done much research on this ?

I'm going home to drive and play with my new Golf !!!

Wooow, that's my dream golf setup! The tint and rotary wheels look amazing. I'm waiting for my trend line black 90TSI to ship in. Shame you're not in Melbourne, I'd be keen on the Dijon wheels. What kind of care/treatment are you going to do on the black paint to keep it looking good?

I am sure we will cross paths at some point! I really wanted MKV11 but it was gone Got the tint done at work as I work at a dealership. I haven't done any research haha enjoy it! Such an awesome car to drive.

Getting a cut and polish by a pro detailer friend who works at BMW then a coat of Opti-Coat paint protection

Paint Protection | About Opti-Coat Ceramic Clear Coating

I will then apply:

2 coats of black wax
Chemical Guys - Black: Best soft paste wax for black cars. Restores the shine and depth of black and dark colored vehicles.

And finish off with hybrid V7

Dealer should be able to give this to you. Call them.

My VW MK VII 110 TDI Highline (Pure White, driver assist, leather, Bi-Xenon, panoramic sun roof) has arrived in Melbourne on the Asian King. It has to be road freighted to Brisbane. Does any one know how to track the vehicle once it has been offloaded, other than relying on the dealer?
