Thanks mate, didn't really get any other interesting photos (the rear didn't look as good), plus I had to get out of there before the rain came + I swear people were wondering why I was parked there/didn't want to get into trouble.

No DRLs, but guessing in profile it will be something like this - nice choice on the Durbans:

Attachment 8912

Thanks man looks amazing

I got a camera at the back which shows up on the dash so that I don't run over people lol.

Does anyone know if the high models come with an Aux port? I plug my iphone 5 into my Polo via this but I've only heard USB mentioned and I don't think iPhones work with that... Does the sat nav touchscreen music thing allow you to copy songs to it or does it have no storage? I've seen people mentioned SD Cards but I can't find mention of it anywhere!

In so excited. I can't believe I've to wait four months haha!

Ordered mine today... Golf GT, pearl black, xenons and LED DRL's, and 18 inch durban alloys!

Takes FOUR MONTHS to get to the uk

Anyone have a picture of this spec with its DRL's on so that I have something to dream about until august lol

Not the same spec car, but this is what the LED DRLs look like on.

The other end of your iPhone cable should be USB?!

It will work fine, as for the other issues I'd read a few of the audio threads in the 7 area as there is more info there. Just remember we are generally writing from an Australian spec perspective which may differ to yours.

The wait is long but worth it..

For AU spec, there's a USB port that provides ONLY power. You can't sync/transmit info over that USB port. In other regions they have a MDI to 9-pin Apple Connector that transmits info AND power.

You can play songs via SD card, the slots are located in the glove box (there's 1 slot for navigation maps and an empty slot for your own SD card).

Mk7 iPod Compatibility (MDI, Bluetooth etc)

I'm up for a cruise. We need to include some dual carriageway roads so we can do some in-gear acceleration runs. Could head up to the Barossa???

I'm sure we wouldn't need to twist Phil's arm too hard either.

I'm in just tell me where n when

Just waiting for Dutch to take delivery of his new Mk7 GTI

Just waiting for Dutch to take delivery of his new Mk7 GTI

Working on it. The short week all bit guarantees it's been pushed back to at least Monday week.

On the flip side I can work on trying to acquire these Watkins Glen wheels.. if Adam succeeds in talking me into waiting for the delivery before pulling the trigger on some new wheels.

Thanks guys! Looks great!

Just read the brochure (don't have the manual yet) but it does say that the car has MDI, USB to Lightning connector , but as you guys say . . .SD is available and I'll probably go for that as then I get all the artwork and stuff
