Late next week?! There's me thinking it would take a day to sail to England... [emoji23]

A day?! Lol I wish

Took 13 from leaving the factory to arrival in the UK for my car

Haha I assumed boats travelled a lot faster... Well mine left factory a week ago so I imagine it will be the same as yours only mine will enter the UK next week.

Not long left, last few weeks are definitely dragging the most though

Happened twice with me tonite the first one I wasn't paying attention and the second I had the esp off so Dnt knw why. Online saying that coz it's front wheel drive and got so much torque so the tyres over slip at high rev which force the esp to act way quicker so golf gti also experience it but Dnt really knw mate. Hopefully someone knw exactly the reason n let us knw. Hv u checked with ur dealer?

No mate not checked with the dealer .. Few issues but haven't got time to travel half way up the country to be told can't find anything lol

it's the equivalent of FWD axel tramp. nothing to be worried about but don't do it often as you will end up braking something
