Car arrived yesterday - no pictures yet , I work away during the week so had to take delivery and drive down to work last night , really really pleased 
,this morning, even though I was into our office bright and early couldn't resist parking it on the top deck of the companies multi storey car park so that is was on show to all my collegues , didn't get much work done with all the constant interuptions and you could even see the colour through the office sun blinds !
I will drop some photos on at the weekend, off to chatsworth on saturday, its going to be my wifes first chance to drive it , so all being well should be able to get some nice photos some where.
Only 2 niggles , there was a small layer of dust over the car (I suspect ex-rain) which spoilt that brand new look but now I realise why people talk about cleaning them as soon as they are delivered , I am going to have to build up my car cleaning kit , it would be nice if you could buy an affordable 'starter pack' that would contain a small amount of everything so that I can buy the high cost items bit by bit whilst carrying out that major clean fairly soon
Second niggle , wish I hadn't bought the mats , I also got some supplied as part of the company car package but I expected the VW ones to be alot better , not even a logo on them, very plain and ordinary looking
But these are minor gripes and I only mention them as a reality check
I will drop a couple of observations in the Tech section as well with regards to BT , DAB and USB all of which I am hugely impressed with

First thing I did upon getting mine homw was give it a Drewcam clean. The dealer had cleaned it but it wasn't up to my standards 
Yayyyyyy
