25thAnni Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 Hello there!! It's been a while since i posted anything here esp since i sold my Anni and after months of deliberation i finally pick my brand spanking new Black R32 on Thursday & i can't wait!! had trouble sleeping since i signed for it on Saturday morning. Found it by chance really, walked into our local dealer & they had one delivered that morning!! Got a great deal, money off list price & GAP etc thrown in. Just got to wait till Thursday when i pick it up.. Currently counting down the days till i get the beast.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

25thAnni Posted July 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 Thanks TP. I was lucky that i found the colour i wanted which was metallic Black. It also has leather, 6 disc autochanger built into centre armrest & tinted windows. Oh & it's manual It's got a couple of things missing that i wanted such as Highline computer & Soundpack but it was just sitting there looking lonely so i bought her. I can't wait till Thursday & what a noise it makes too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

v6tas Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 Mook is right, it is a "Nut house" but that's what makes it a good place to be. Enjoy the 32 mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mook Posted July 31, 2006 Report Share Posted July 31, 2006 Feck, how many times have I told you tspar, there's no space between "nut" and "house". Get with the programme will you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
25thAnni Posted August 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Thanks for the warm welcome to the 'Nuthouse' guy's. I'm looking forward to some banter when i get the motor. Still counting the days & only 2 left to go!! By the way, i noticed that my car has a square type number plate on the front bumper. Anyone know if it's a new design or something? Never noticed that before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going into my dealer next week to try and get a confirmed delivery and I'll be asking about the square plate if you're correct in your statement. Presumably you've seen the car at the dealer being prepped ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
25thAnni Posted August 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 yeah i saw it at the dealers on Saturday when i signed for the thing. I spoke to them this afternoon & he mentioned that they were trying to get a number plate made up that was square, it was taking time as they'd never seen a one with it!! Doesn't exactly fill you with confidence I hope it doe's look good, otherwise it'll be straight back to get replaced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedywheels Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 After having another look at the front end of the R32, a square plate is going to look all wrong (quickly looks at watch, no it isn't April 1). Get it changed now - surely it's going to interrupt with airflow to the radiator or into the lower scoop ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The square plate looked quite small so not sure about blocking air scoop etc Think i'll just wait to see it in the flesh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could it be a european import? as VW have to accomodate for differing plate sizes throughout the world (i.e US, Japan, Vatican City) Not sure if square front plates are actually still legal on the UK roads now for anything other than classic/imported cars...
