Hi

Yes a quick Z6 and a Z8 (they both go a very long way from the spray bottles) after a Z7 wash

Pics uploading rather slowly!...

Hi Vectra Yes, after my friend recommended them for their ease of use and superb results, I was hooked. I did clay bar my old B6 because we bought it second hand and the paintwork wasn't exact glassy smooth. After a morning of claying / lubricating with Z7 in a spray bottle the surface was amazing. ...

Sorry, should have said, it was nearly dark when I finished Looks a nice day here now. Will do some this afternoon

After having a great experience with Zaino detailing products from Zaino Europe, using them on my old B6, I thought that my week old B8 deserved a good start to its life! First of all a good wash with Zaino Z-7 show car wash. Then three coats of Zaino Z-2 Pro polish with ZFX accelerator additive to ...

How's the Passat going now? What's the ambient lighting like at night? Does it extend across the dash or is it only on the doors? Best of luck. Ambient lighting looks great. The lighting is a cool white light. The LED strips are along the width of all four doors, just below the door handles on the ...

First post.....my faithful B5.5 Highline has been sold to a chap in the village and I collect my SE Business in the morning. Like others here I used a quote from a broker and local dealer improved. Mine was in the showroom so was ready to go almost straight away. If this new model serves me and the...

Just got in from my first 'on my own' night drive. As I walked to the car park and unlocked the car ready to come home, my pals were gobsmacked at the rear 'dynamic' LED lights and the main LED projection headlights with dynamic cornering. Oh well, boys and cars,easily pleased :roll: Driven only 150...

I have the standard Discovery Navigation in my GT saloon and it sounds pretty good compared to my wife's B7 RNS315, which I always thought sounded very clear, with a good midrange and bass. I had an Alpine double din DVD unit with J L Audio speakers and a 4 channel J L Audio amp in my old B6 saloon ...

Drove it to work for the first time today and couldn't stop smilling

Hi, I have the GT saloon 150PS with premium LED headlights and DCC suspension and the ride is great, even on the 18" alloys and rough B roads. We test drove the standard GT with 18" alloys and an SE Business with 17" London alloys and the ride was great on both even with standard susp...

Yes it does - my wife and daughter went for it immediately. I love the clean sharp look of your Tungsten though. Having some second thoughts now. I have never seen the Crimson in real life, only in pictures. I would definitely try and see a car in whatever colour you eventually go for. We've had re...

Yes, Tungsten Silver with black Alcantara. Crimson with cream sounds very luxurious!

And some more...

More pics...

OK, I have finally uploaded some pics of our new GT. First of all the new B8 looks huge compared to my old B6. Even my wife's B7 cowers down before it in our driveway, and I thought that looked pretty purposeful next to my old car old 6 years. First thing that struck us when driving back from our de...

Just compiling it on my phone and pics are going to be cropped at home in a mo!!!

Sorry, just got back in from a test drive on one of our close motorways. Lovely ambient lighting system in the car, premium LED headlights are superb and the DCC adaptive chassis control is excellent in the various modes. Sorry will upload some pictures tomorrow and report on the rest of the car. My...

Just picked up my GT. Wow is all I can say! Pictures and report coming tonight

One more day to go before I pick up my GT. last day of driving my B6 to work tomorrow. End of an era

Had an unscheduled, five minute sneak peak at my GT saloon in a dark, deserted service bay today, prior to next weekends handover :mrgreen: First time I've seen in the flesh a saloon in tungsten silver, debadged, with its 18" anthracite alloys and premium LED headlights. In the semi dark, befor...

Yes these past two weeks have been excrutiating! Although I get to drive my wife's B7 at weekends so that's nice, and I still really enjoy my 2006 B6! Good news on the album art. I put everything my wife wanted onto a 32GB SD card and she loves the portability of it on her RNS 315 system. I've got a...

I think it looks excellent Zedsdead. Very clean and sharp in white.

I've been told I can go and see my Tungsten Silver GT at VW tomorrow but it's covered in plastic wrapping etc. Think I'll leave it to handover day on the 25 April
