For the Mark V there were three different boot liners. Putting the very high-lipped one to one side, the two low-lipped liners came in a compressed foam-like material and something more like acrylic, the latter being a bit more exy.

The dealer, if they are including a boot liner in the price, will include the foam one (which could well grip loose objects better than the other one but is a bit flimsy, especially for the bucks they charge).

But if you've specified the non-foam liner, you should be able to swap (presuming the same options exist for the Mk VI).

Thanks for that dubya, I will check it out but pretty sure there was only 1 option.

Hi guys,
I went down to chatswood dealer this morning and pre-ordered an MK6 GTI.
Here is the spec:
5 Door Candy White
DSG trans
18inch Monza alloy
ACC(adaptive chassis control)
Paint protect
Legal darkest tinting

The pricing is not yet finalize, but it should arrived in Aus at around october or september.

I wonder what happen if we do not include the ACC to the optional package, will the GTI have standard setting of Sport or Comfort?

P.S i so cant wait

Re these two options below, you can get it done yourself and save lots of $$. Dealers margins are very high.

Plenty of forums threads on point (many of opinion that paint protection is complete waste).
