    Tell us what you think about your car?
    Fast when in Sports mode. Early edition Mk8 has had problems such as the oil sensor, infotainment screen freezing, and leaves getting stuck inside the front grille. Apart from that, it's a great car to own and drive, that's quiet and has a smooth ride.
    What's the one thing you like most about your car?
    The dial cluster and front R-Line Seats.
    If you could improve one thing, what would it be?
    Update software on the vehicle.
    Would you recommend the car to a friend?
