BLOCK Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 Ive just been up to the dealers to drop in my number plates for my new gti and it had arrived early this morning..... it was parked out in the sun straight off the transporter and all looked good no damage, phew. i could see a few swirls tho so they must be installed either at the factory or on its journey, looks like i'll be spending all weekend polishing it with the pc. more news soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metalex Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 Looking good, but you need to get your dealer to straighten out that right hand headlight washer. Looks a bit skewed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenjyGTI Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 Looking very nice indeed! Kinda wished I had gone for white, just didn't have the guts I guess, plus I had a white Fiesta RS years ago and it was a pig to keep clean in winter. Won't be hearing from you for the next week then eh Block? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarlT Posted September 8, 2006 Report Share Posted September 8, 2006 Our white one is really loosening up now (6500 miles), but it is looking filthy at the moment. We are driving to the Alps in February - so it should look cool after that (very dirty) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] yes my dealer can provide plates but im fussy and wanted some metal german style ones. see here..... http://www.dubmeister.co.uk/ I phoned the dealer yesterday to tell him to get the mechanics to have a look at the headlight washer so hopefully in about an hour when i pick it up it'll be right ohhh cant wait now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamD Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 Are those plates actually legal for use on the road? The website clearly states [ QUOTE ] These plates are sold strictly for off-road show use only. [/ QUOTE ] Anyway, enjoy the car today - looks liek a lovely day to pick it up!

DHA Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 Not fully legal but there are far worse crimes to be paying attention to! And far worse examples of number plates! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 I think it may have been semi prepped already by looking at the photos does not seem to be straight off the transporter protection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
