If I folded the mirrors in via the button inside the car then locked it, would they open when I unlocked car or only when I use the switch inside again, hope this isn't to confusingly written lol
Should only be when you use the switch again, although I will test tomorrow if noone else confirms.

Ok cheers, I ask cos I would want them opening as I unlock as would catch the frame of garage on way out then as door opening is narrower than the garage itself

Thanks!
Not owned a Polo before, but have had 3 Mk2 Golf GTIs in the family, which I feel this new GTI is the spiritual successor to given its similar dimensions.

Ah, I'm not new to VW just to the Polo, also got a Mk4 Golf 2.0 Estate. Had a look at the new 5 door Mini Cooper and Cooper S too.
What has been the waiting time for your car if you don't mind me asking?

Confirmed: If the switch inside the car indicates the mirrors to fold, they will not unfold until you turn the nob to another setting. Even if you turn on the ignition.

I ordered mine on the 16th of feb and still waiting for a build week. It's kind of annoyed me that some options are now available but when I ordered mine there wasn't that many options for it. But I can't change it which has annoyed me
