Well went to VW today to check out new Caddy.
Well happy apart from stance, payed for it to be lowered, but I just can't see it. Taken it up with VW at the moment.
Picking up next week, can't wait

Very nice bud, good choice of colour, it works well on the Caddy.
Front looks like it's a tiny bit lower than standard, rear not so much.

VW contributed £850 + vat, as previous customer.
Yea added £2,500 in extras, soon adds up. Luckily I can claim for everything otherwise it would have been a no go.

Mines with the "Lowered" option and it looks the same as yours, to be honest it doesn't look much lowered but I have more axes to grind with VW - "The traction control problem" LOL

Yes following your post, and will let you know how mine is when I collect.
Disappointed with the factory lowering deffinately not worth £100, see how I get on.
