New car
« on: February 20, 2009, 04:25:24 pm »
Greetings all. Picked up my 08 Gti this morning and absolutely love it. Feels much faster than figures suggest and the surges of power are so addictive. Still got 2 years warranty left so will be a while before i start making any mods but keeping my eye on the price of lsd. If it comes down low enough might be forced to make a trip to tuners. Anyway quick question, should my Gti have come with floor mats and if so should they have gti logo?

The GTI came with mats as standard yes, but not with a GTI logo.

Mine is a UK car, 08 Model Year.

I haven't bought any mats, just stuck with the ones that came with the car.

Just looked on the price list for 08MY cars and the GTI came as standard with 'carpet mats, front and rear'. No GTI logos or anything on them at all.
