Dashboard Mascot
« on: September 23, 2010, 05:28:43 pm »
Hi this is my first post and it is a question i cannot find the answer for on Google.

I have seen this little 'Bomb' shaped toy in the American TV adverts and in some pics on line, he has a red smile the same as the red bit on the grill of a GTi.

Does anyone know what it is called and where can I get one more importantly?

Lovin the Forum guys, now I own one of these amazing MK5GTI's I will be visiting here frequently.

Cheers all

Actually found one on eBay in America.

They were given to the first 200 customers apparently.

Gotta have me one of those  :evilgrin:

These FASTs were only ever released in America as part of the VW FAST campaign I believe. Hence quite rare.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.
