Well it has finally arrived! This was ordered back in early March but due to a few hiccups in Germany with the transportation it has only just arrived.
I have to say I was impressed with how Agnew VW on Boucher Road handled the delay and also looked after me when I had sold the BMW to ensure I wasn’t left without a car!
The spec is as follows:
White Silver 5dr
DSG
Dynaudio Excite Sound Pack
Dynamic Chassic Control
Rear View Camera
19” Black Pretoria wheels
Rear Tints (90%)
Climate Controlled Heated Windscreen
Electric Panoramic Roof
Keyless Entry & Go
Lane Assist with Dynamic Lighting
The car was delivered to @big_pete at PMG with most of the delivery coverings still in place, Agnews only removed what they needed to in order to PDI it at my request. The car was treated to a GTechniq Ultra coating as well as having the wheels and glass treated. The level of finish and gloss achieved by PMG was outstanding. Pete also kindly fitted my gloss black mirror covers and rear performance lip spoiler for me prior to me picking it up.
I picked the car up from Pete tonight with only 10 miles on the clock....and decided to put another 90 on it to get home via the Coast Road and through Glenariff.
The Dynaudio is excellent and dare I say, better than the Harmon Kardon system in my previous BMW (which was also extremely good). The DCC is also a lot more noticeable between modes than the adaptive was on the BMW. The car just feels totally planted no matter what you throw at it. I haven’t given it a proper blast yet as I want to run it in a bit first but so far I’m extremely impressed.
The seats are very comfortable, I stuck with cloth as I wasn’t a fan of VW leather. The centre console, connectivity and virtual cockpit are all excellent and make you feel that you are in something very modern. The illuminated door sills and ambient lighting are also a nice touch.
I forgot to tell Agnews not to drill the plates on but I have a new set ordered through @Neil@rockvale so that should tidy it up a bit.
Anyway, here’s a few pictures.
