Lease on Golf R
Discussion

Don't know if it's been sold already but the Golf R order I cancelled is still going through production by the dealer. Just hit step 5 of 7 this morning so if anyone wants a Lapis Blue 3dr, with DSG and Discovery Pro let me know and I'll forward details of the dealer.
That's a good spec ![smile](/inc/images/smile.gif)
Just spoke to Phil for a chat / update. He advises that the order tracking on VWs website for ALL Golfs (not just Rs) has mistakenly been reset to stage 1 ![eek](/inc/images/eek.gif)
So, don't panic if you check on your order progress - he expects it will all be corrected by the end of this week and your actual order / build / delivery should not be affected.

I had my stage 6 "again" today..... 5 days after I first received it... So I think something is amiss![eek](/inc/images/eek.gif)

Hi guys, this is my first list, but I've been watching for 130 pages! Stop checking your order everyday! It doesn't make it come any quicker! If your worried if you have a good deal, then don't check! I only want to know/see when ppl have got their car! If you want info on deals then phis; like the rest of us! Nothing comes for free ![smile](/inc/images/smile.gif)

Rhys & Bonty - are you guys still around?
Mine was delivered this morning with 1/3 a tank of gas. I ran it almost til the red and have filled up with v- power nitro. How are you guys averaging around 40mpg?!? I'm averaging 26.8mpg - that's not in race mode!!
On the plus side, wow! What an incredible machine. More so than I remember from the test drive. Brutally savage acceleration when foot to the floor, yet a refined and relaxing cruiser when pottering around. Brilliant!

First few miles (500 or so) will be real low mpg, mines starting to go up now, hitting mid 30's on a run now Mine was delivered this morning with 1/3 a tank of gas.

Can we clarify the use of the word 'should' please.The "should" was my phrasing: Phil said it was purely a glitch and orders were not affected.
Hope that clarifies.

I'm here mate!! Beauts aren't they? I've done 488 miles now, and my overall average is like 38.4? I don't drive it that steadily either, and she's not left sport since I picked her up!Mine was delivered this morning with 1/3 a tank of gas.

Since Ryhs said about not taking his out of Race mode, i've done the same and my economy has gone up, i now get 37mpg on avg to and from work every day which is all B roads and villages (great corners), and i'm only running on standard 97 super unleaded, its a trek for me to get something different. My next tank will be V+Nitro, and will see what difference that makes. My overall avg is only at abt 31-32, but thats cos i spent the first 400 miles testing different fuels and flying around like a nut case showing it to everyone i knew. I do think Race mode is better for economy than Eco.
Keep us posted mate on how you are finding it.
Oh and i have noticed that its gets proper bug splatted too, its gonnna be a nightmare to keep clean!!
