Hertsman, 2024 sounds like a fun year trying out different cars until you find another Goldilocks model to partner up with the one you’ve just purchased.

Will, pretty spot on there with one exception… once you’ve experienced a heated steering wheel there’s no going back!! 😁
(With the exception of alcantara wheels which still don’t feel all that cold at 5am in December)

In fairness the mk7 did have a heated steering wheel option, not sure why it was never presented to the r-line/gti/gtd/R models though, considering I see more Gtd's on the road than normal golfs at this stage.

There is a retrofit option below for you though  :wink:


Mk7.5 GTI - Performance Pack, DSG, Sunroof, Dynaudio, Pro Nav, Vienna Leather, Climate Windscreen & last of the 3 doors....Many Sets of Alloys...

Prev - Mk7.5 White Silver, Vienna Leather, Sunroof, Helix Sub, Many Wheels
