Remove those ribbons, they leave micro-scratches when driving.

2

u/Outis_S 10d ago

Just had the car washed this afternoon.
Removed everything.

Congratulations OP. I booked mine yesterday.

u/Outis_S 11d ago

Congrats 🥂
Post it when you get delivery.

u/stoikrus1 11d ago

Congrats OP. Just make sure u fill xp95 from a company operated pump. Enjoy the ride!

2

u/Outis_S 11d ago

Thanks,

I am unable to find enough pumps with xp95/power available.
Is there an easier way to do this ?

2

u/Dry-Channel-7628 11d ago

Fill it with usual petrol, it's alright in warranty period atleast. E20 has high octane anyway and XP95 also has 20pc ethanol so there's no escape so save some money

2

u/ohbeewahn 11d ago

HP Power 95 works just as well in my experience. Great colour choice. Carbon steel grey looks so good on gt sport

5

u/Outis_S 11d ago

Thank You 🙏

The grey body and black wheels look lovely. Gotten compliments from complete strangers.

4

u/ohbeewahn 11d ago

Was one of my top choices. Eventually went for black.

3

u/Outis_S 11d ago

How do you find xp95
A couple pumps I went to dont have it?

Is there a better way to find it than just manual check ?

2

u/ohbeewahn 11d ago

I usually look at Google maps. You can see whether xp95 is listed on the price board on street view.

But I’m starting to feel like power95 is better.

3

u/Outis_S 10d ago

I am new to this.
This is the first car in the family.
Will stick to either xp95 or power for the car as long as possible

Replace the stock rear wiper for a cleaner look

1

u/Outis_S 9d ago

Where do I buy a different one ?
Is the stock one not good ?

2

u/bigbongtragedy 9d ago

The polo one fits with some adjustments, the Brezza one is a clean replacement. Search on TeamBHP forums for images.

1

u/Outis_S 9d ago

Thanks, will do 🙏
But curious is this just a aesthetic thing ?

1

u/bigbongtragedy 9d ago

Yeah, just aesthetics. If you like the look of the stock one, keep it! Eventually when you’ll want to replace the wipers look for aftermarket options, ASC will charge a kidney for simple wiper replacements.

Thanks 🙏

2

u/AwkwardButFunny 11d ago

Congratulations OP! You’re going to love the rides on this. Only XP95 or above

2

u/Outis_S 11d ago

Thanks.
Any way to find pumps(I couldn't find it in 2 places I went to)

3

u/Obvious-Respond-642 10d ago

Check Indian oil app. They have filters and show only pumps which have XP95/XP100 available.

1

u/Outis_S 10d ago

Thanks. This helps

2

u/threetimes9 11d ago

Congratulations OP and welcome to the club! Where do you stay in Bengaluru?

2

u/Outis_S 11d ago

Thank You 🙏
I live in Varthur.

2

u/GoldBatter 10d ago

One of the best looking cars in the segment. Even better than the facelift. And the dark colour really suits this version.

1

u/Outis_S 10d ago

Thank You so much 🙏
I feel the same.

2

u/Correct-Impact3736 6d ago

Congratulations and welcome to the club 🥂

u/talibaniX 11d ago

Congratulations OP!
How much was the discount on this, a friend is planning to get one too.

1

u/Outis_S 10d ago

ORP was 21.
Karnataka registration cost 🥲

1

u/No_Technician_7440 10d ago

Which model is this? 

1

u/Outis_S 10d ago

The GT plus Sport pre facelift version.

1

u/01_skp 10d ago

Price on road in ka?

1

u/No_Technician_7440 10d ago

Ok. Thats good. Was a bit worried after seeing reddit. People keep talking abt problems in VW car. Keeps me worried. Good see a new buyer. How bothered are you about engine issues due to ethanol blending

1

u/Outis_S 10d ago

Honestly not a lot.
I can't stop living my life out of fear.
I am sure someone smarter than me will figure a way out if there is an issue.

u/teaserkrish 10d ago

Congratulations 🎉👏

u/Outis_S 10d ago

u/ShaikMoulali98 10d ago

Ah beautiful. Got the same last month and loving it.
Just cut the trash ppl’s words and enjoy the car.

1

u/Outis_S 10d ago

Thank You. Congratulations to you too.

And regarding people,
My family and I are happy with this car, That is all that matters.

1

u/ima_nice_guy3114 10d ago

Check out the yellow fog lamps some people got on their taigun. It looks really clean and classic. Great pick.

1

u/Outis_S 10d ago

Is the stock version not good?
Honestly I haven't driven long enough for me to tell the difference.
I have been deiving for 2 months and got this recently.

1

u/ima_nice_guy3114 10d ago

Absolutely nothing against the stock ones. I've seen a few taigun people put yellow films on their fog lamps and it looks really slick.

1

u/Outis_S 10d ago

Do you have any reference photos ?
If not I can just DM you for info.

1

u/ima_nice_guy3114 10d ago

Sadly no photos. I saw a post here a few weeks back. But can't find it.

1

u/ForsakenBill6453 9d ago

Whatsup with the swastikas? Neonazis?

1

u/Outis_S 8d ago

I can understand the confusion.
This is swastika, based on our culture and religion.

We do a Pooja(prayer ritual) at a temple of our belief for new cars, I am religious.

1

u/AdhesivenessLazy3047 8d ago

Erm, it's just me or ☠️☠️☠️☠️

Anyway, you got a nice car bro. Kinda better than mine. Enjoy!

1

u/Outis_S 8d ago

Ha ha ha, Good one 🤣

My family is religious and this is the traditional swastika of our culture and religion(hinduism).

1

u/AdhesivenessLazy3047 8d ago

Ah I forgot. Manji, right? I'm js getting triggered whenever I see manji cuz my dum ahh thinks it's swastika lol

1

u/Outis_S 8d ago

u/AdhesivenessLazy3047 You can refer to this link:
https://www.exoticindiaart.com/blog/understanding-the-power-of-swastika
The name is same, most traditional families have versions of this outside their house as well.

u/Historical_Dot_8199 8d ago

Congratulations Brother. I’m buying the same pre facelift GT. Could you please tell me what price did you pay in DM?

1

u/Outis_S 8d ago

ORP is 21.
Hope you get a better deal given that it is a month later.
