Hi folks, newest member to the forum.
I took delivery of my new MK7 GT TDi yesterday. Tornado red with upgraded 18" Serron alloys.
Timing couldn't have been worse. We got our first snow of the winter, with high winds as I was on my journey home! Car still performed really well. I love it. Even though I had to suffer 3" of the white stuff.
The L.E.D interior lights are so classy, nice surprise.
Today I'd to work a 12 hour shift. Snow almost gone, but due to return, so I'd to borrow my wife's Tiguan and leave the new golf behind.
So back to the Golf. Dealer hasn't received the SD cards for Sat Nav. As soon as it arrives he's gonna post one to me. Question time...... Is it a straight forward insert the card and it works? Or do we need to programme it?
Also, when I ordered the car I liked the sound of the golf-ball style Sport gear knob at £125.
It's listed in several countries as an option when spec-ing up a car, but there are no images of the item online or in the brochure. The dealer told me the gear knob is not available for immediate delivery, as it's on back order.
So, I'm busting to see what it will look like. My last Tornado red Golf was a 1991 16V GTi and I loved the idea of its golf ball style gear knob.
I find it a tad strange that no- one here that I can find is here an image of he new item.... Not even the brochure has a pic!
