GT 190 Estate

Post by gold1640 »

Picked up a GT190 Estate yesterday. Original salesman not available, stand-in salesman had called in sick, third salesman called in at two minute's notice and seemed relieved when I didn't ask too many questions about the car.

First impressions good, the load area is bigger than the B7 estate it replaced.
Took it for a 120 mile round trip to Cardiff last night.
LED lights good, interior lighting nice.

Not-so-good, some small in the grand scheme of things:-

Front doors only have the two 'stops', narrow and wide, nothing inbetween.
The luggage area light seems to be an ordinary bulb, not LED - have to check.
Disappointed that the passenger door mirror doesn't dip on reverse - can't be that difficult to include as the Golf has it with the Mirror Pack.

The car was ordered with the 'Vision and Communications' pack, but I've been through all the menu options and I can't find how to turn on the 'Dynamic Light Assist' - need to check with the original salesman as I was assured that this was included in the Pack.
