After I received a new registration document for my Volkswagen Golf, how do I know the new document is accurate?
After reading BW of Plymouth’s email and your reply, I feel a little concerned. I too bought a Volkswagen Golf 1.4 TSI DSG Match in November of 2010 from my local main dealer. On receiving the registration document I found that the car had been registered in my name, but as an SE model. I pointed it out to the dealership and asked them to deal with it, which they did. After about six weeks I received the new document that now reads Match. My concern is how do I know that the car is what the registration document states?

By the spec, which is here: www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/volkswagen/golf-vi-2.../
Specifically: 20-5-2010: Golf Match introduced, replacing the SE trim level, with over £1,600 worth of extras while costing £300 more than the outgoing SE. On top of the SE’s already generous specification, the Match adds unique 16-inch ‘Croft’ alloy wheels, a leather multifunction steering wheel, DAB digital radio receiver, Bluetooth system, front and rear parking sensors and an RCD 510 touchscreen stereo with six-disc CD autochanger.
Available with the same engines as the outgoing SE: 1.4-litre TSI petrol with 122 PS, a 1.6-litre TDI 105 PS or a 2.0-litre TDI with 140 PS. Both the petrol and the 1.6-litre TDI are offered with Volkswagen’s seven-speed DSG gearbox, while the 2.0-litre TDI can be specified with the six-speed DSG option.

Comfortable and quiet on the move, enjoyable to drive. Nicely trimmed with great attention to detail. 1.4 TSI sweeter to drive than a diesel.
