So.. Took up mine this Friday. 2 days later I'm already in love. (Magnetic Grey, 1.5 150hp, full options except for Alarm, Roof top, Beats and Top View camera)
Not a long wait in final for me, only 56 days since the final order in late January. It's personal record for a new car delivery on my side :oops:

First time for me with automatic and DSG, and I can't already get back to manual. So smooth driving, so precise... love it!

150hp engine is enough for me, it make good acceleration (totally different feeling on the quite same engine in my old Touran 1.4 TSI 150hp)

No bug for the moment, on the 1890 update. Don't know if 1896 can be done with OTA... no update available in the settings

No options missing, I have the virtual pedal and tow bar.

Only a few downside coming from VW Touran (2016)
  • No small storage, even for a single sunglasses (ordering today sunglasses box from Aliexpress). Of course Touran is more for familly, but come on, just want some little storage, not the same as the Touran.
  • Armrest should be 10 cm longer, but with DSG is not really a problem (too short for manual gear !)
  • Same for my left (right drive) elbow to put on the door (too high)
  • Front cover without pneumatic arm ??? really ? Ok, not a big deal as I open it once a year... but at this price ..
Otherwise, I juste want to drive it everytime :love:

For the armrest you should be able to pull it out a little, as I have on mine- have you tried that?

After 164 days from placing the order, I finally took delivery of my V2 1.5 DSG with Beats!

It felt like a lifetime ago when I first placed the order and the process for me wasn’t as easy sailing as I would’ve hoped, with my initial dealer closing after placing the order which meant my order was transferred to another dealership. Adding to this, I had a scare last week which could have further delayed deliver, with my new dealership not able to produce the finance documents as all the paperwork had to be produced and finalised by my initial (which wasn’t possible due to them closing down).

Alas, we are here now and I’m glad to see the process through! For those still waiting, please stick it out, it’ll be worth it in the end.

Had my 1.5 v2 delivered today after ordering in Sept. Love it.
Next step, ceramic coating and get OBDeleven to sort out some of the annoying features.

Got the blue seats but didn’t get the matching mats, came with black ones which I thought was a bit odd.

Nice!!

What colour car is it?

Any chance of a pic or two of the interior as I cant make my mind up about the blue leather. 😂

Magnetic tech grey metallic.

someone’s already beat me to a picture but the blue leather looks really smart. The wife thought it would be a bit much from the pictures but now she’s seen it in person she’s well happy with the blue interior too.

It is the Glasgow branch. When I ordered mine back in July last year, it was the deal they were offering at the time that lured me in to look at them.

i noticed the yellow one this morning. Didn’t know if it was a customers car or theirs. It is actually grey underneath the wrap.

Mine is Graphene with blue leather as well.

Thanks, I didn't notice it wasn't your pics :ROFLMAO:
Thats the car colour I want, think I'm going to try to see the blue in the flesh as it looks so different in different pics.
My instincts tell me blue is a classy looking interior but if I get it wrong the mrs will not stop going on about it :censored:

That looks so much better without the grey bits around the arches. I'd be tempted to have it done if I had the spare funds, but probably something like nardo grey rather than yellow. :)

I guess it's all in the eye of the beholder, personally I don't like this car in yellow :(.
