Last night we arrived at our holiday home in Devon for a week away. My wife’s niece arrived in her Mk3 Elegance in the dark.

There are lights in the door handles! I’d didn’t know they had that! I’m 65 - everyone was unpacking the car and I was dancing around going “Look everyone! Lights on the handles!” :lol:

I think they all thought I was bonkers.

Maybe I am.

Rather than these fancy lights I would like a more reliable car without the issues discussed on this forum.

There's also lights under the door card to show puddles etc when the door is opened, oh and the VW logo from the mirrors but some of that is spec dependant d I guess?.

Got puddle lights on my current Mk2 Tig, but no VW logo. I’ll have to check but suspect that might be R Line

Get VW logo with Match trim along with door handle lights, and puddle lights when doors are open.

One other nice "feature" is that when you unlock the car the LED lights around the interior of the car light Green before you open the door and when you lock it they light Red.
