BlackSheep Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 Just a quick note to say thanks for all the help!! I've been lurking here for a couple of months whilst refining my ideal spec & watching the whole DSG v manual debate unfold. I finally reached my decision, did some phoning round and managed to pick one off the showroom floor locally, with everything I wanted except the winter kit (happy enough as I've managed so far without heated seats!) The best bit is that I collected it last Saturday after a torrid 7 day wait!! (BTW The dealer is reasonably good and I believe that they have spare allocation of GTI's coming to them which haven't been specced yet.) Having moved from a Mk IV 1.8T, I can already say that it's miles better & it's not even run in yet! My only niggle is the quality of the RCD 300 - it's pants compared to the standard system in the Mk IV! So, I am glad that I found this place - it's incredibly helpful - hopefully I can contribute in some way now that I've come out of the shadows! Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevie_d Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 Yep, this forum rocks Take it easy and wait for the car to be run it, but you'll love it. Oh, and I'm not the least bit jealous *cough* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotw Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 Hi there Blacksheep, nice to see another Aberdeen GTi driver around. Glad your experience with the dealer was good - mine was not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoSheds Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 Welcome BlackSheep to TSN. You're right an incredibly helpful bunch use this site ( from my experience ). We all never stop learning & that makes ownership even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSheep Posted January 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 Thanks Guys. Scott - it wasn't the local local dealer - the one about 40 miles north! If your dealer is closer than that, then I have had similar experiance of their "service" with previous cars, hence the move up north (and to Perth before that)!

scotw Posted January 27, 2006 Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 Black, yeah we've been the same terrible place, I did think of going to the one up North Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSheep Posted January 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2006 Their attitude that it's their God given right to take your money, and a privilege for us lowly customers to deal with them is beyond belief sometimes!! 's Ahh, that's better.... I guess they've had it too easy for too long, with the oil money & company purchases!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
