I can't seem to find anything I'd want more than another Golf.I made turning the bolt very easy by slipping a 4 pipe over the socket wrench handle. I put a deposit on a MK8 Golf R in Oct 2021 and will wait it out. I've got over 100K on my Mk7.5 GTI now, which has been absolutely reliable (as were my Mk 6 and Mk 7). One thing I have notices is the gauge screen looks small it doesn't fill the space in the steering wheel like the gauges in the Mk7 do.None of this is a deal breaker for me - just seems that the Mk7 was an overall higher quality in terms of design/materials. And it helps knowing the shortcut for the heated seats (not sure if it works with the cooled seats in the Golf R). I don't think it works as well as actual knobs, but for most things I set it and forget it. ![]() Not a fan of the one piece seats or the grey leather inserts used in the GTI.Not complaining about the IP interface as I've gotten used to it with our ID.4. the leather wrapped ball of the Mk6 or the golf ball on a metal tee of the Mk7. the plastic on the Mk8 basically shared now with every other VW.

The nativist reaction to these attempts tended to be reminding people that the Vikings actually were actually the true discoverers of America, or put up Viking statues or talk about how the historical accounts of Columbus aren't very positive. (or probably because of) their growing population anti-Italian and anti-Catholic sentiment was very strong in the country during the mid to late 19th century.The Italians and Catholics fought quite hard to make Columbus Day a permanent holiday.
