Haha, in the poll Blue Silk was one of the most popular colors, but was there a single one on the meet?
Funnily enough there wasn't a single one! And surprisingly for black being the free option there were only 3 black ones! Must have had a deal going for white ones..
Hi guys/gals, I need to fill in a formto enable me to take it abroad on the company scheme but to do so I need to know the car registration. At what point in the process is the car registered and given a reg no? My Gti is on stage 5 'left the factory' currently.
The need is time critical as if I'm not cleared to drive it abroad (i'm taking it to France 17th June) I won't be able to drive to Le Mans

Have a chat with your salesman, as far as I am aware the dealership will have a list of allocated registration numbers that they choose from when registering cars, he may be able to set one aside for you.
Typically though, the car will be registered once it has arrived at the dealership and is PDI'd.

I think they look smart and would be easier if they done it .
I asked my dealer that exact question and it seemed to confuse him, probably best done by yourself after pick up.
Does anyone know any sites that sell the authentic PP golf gti red badges? I have seen some on sale on ebay but they are £20 each!

Been asking Live Chat all of last week for an update and kept getting told it's on it's way to the port and can take 7 working days to arrive there. Once there they will be able to tell me a date it's due to be shipped. I left it over the weekend and had yesterday off.. got into work this morning, loaded up Live Chat and waheeey... it's on the City of Amsterdam and is due into Sheerness at 11am today according to the Marine Traffic tracker!
I've been told it can take 48 hours to unload, 12 hours in compound and then 7-10 days to the dealership. Fingers crossed I'll have it w/c 16th May at the earliest?!

I asked my dealer to do this. When they tried, they found that the golf PP badge doesn't fit because the bracket is slightly different. So the only way to do it is pull the letters off the bracket and stick Red GTI letters back on. I have mine ready to put on my new one when it arrives.

Damn really? I've asked my dealer to see if they can swap the badges out too as saw it done a few pages back with no issues but didn't see this before I asked him!
My car has been offloaded at Sheerness, and the boat has gone up to Grimsby. Apparently it'll be in compound for 12 hours (which must be up shortly!) and then fingers crossed it'll be on it's way to the dealership asap! We're only about an hour or so away so touch wood it's a speedy delivery.. can't wait to pick it up!
