I guess it depends on the type of driving you do really….

Personally I went for the winter pack (heated seats etc), parking sensors (they were pretty cheap) and the leather. As I travel about at weekends with the misses, I also went for Sat Nav, but you'll get it cheaper if you go aftermarket. I just wanted something that fitted into the dash neatly so went for the factory option.

The .:R itself comes very well specced, so there's not a huge amount of choice of extras really. Considering when I priced up a BMW 130i (don't flame me, it was the misses who liked it tongue.gif ), with a similar spec to the standard Golf, I was looking close on 31k!

If you spec leather you get heated seats anyway, so I think the winter pack for £200 for little more than heated w/washers seems a bit of a rip off.

If you want cruise I'd ask your dealer to fit it when the car arrives for £150 rather than the £270 from the factory.

I like the centre armrest 'cos I reckon it looks odd without it, but I know others on here don't like it.

Highline is a must for £48 or so & folding mirrors if you have a narrow garage entrance (although this is a bit of a swizz as well as they only fold back half way)

I wasn't aware of this! So am I correct in saying that you actually have to adjust them manually to open them out once you have folded them in?

Don't think you can change the spec once you've placed your order.

Things like cruise/satnav/centre armrest can be retro fitted.

Dealer options are limited to things like, ipod i/f, boot mat, luggage nets etc
