extra specs:
electronic limited slip differential
7kW extra
bi-xenon headlights with led daytime lights, cornering lights and led tail-lights
bigger brakes w/ GTI branding
19" santiago wheels

Well done! You must be so excited. - same spec as mine but different colour and without euro plates. If you don't mind me asking what did you end up getting it for? I know you were aiming for under $50k and I'd be most impressed if you managed to come anywhere close to that.

Besides wanting a red one with no sunroof that the spec I want too.

Thanks mate, is it true that there will not be a manual option?
And with the seats, is it just alcantara edges?

yeah, apparently no manual option - could change if enough people demand it.
http://www.vwvortex.com/wp-content/u...-7-gti-108.jpg - that's what the seats look like; tartan main area, alcantara highlights and leather? edges.
the seats are worth ~$1500 as an extra (in countries where offered).

7k off barloworld's advertised drive-away price - unfortunately there's no recommended drive-away price listed for the PP on the Volkswagen website.

Haha that is probably the best deal I've heard anyone get on a new golf! Good job!

also make sure RDS and TP are enabled in settings. you should be able to see 'TP' on top of the centre display once enabled.
but even if you can see TP, you may still not able to retrieve traffic information, then thats due to coding.

cheers, thanks. Both settings were off. It works now. I wonder if the satnav takes it into consideration when calculating routes? If not then its pretty useless.
