Looks good!
Needing a new car myself and this could fit the bill quite well. 7 speed gearbox is mad!
Especially with the 0% finance and NO VAT!

you can put the autos on rollers but can be pointless as even in 'manual' mode it will still change up/down for you, if you get the box mapped it becomes properly manual so you can redline it and makes it easier for the rollers.
some dyno people manage to work around the auto by just knowing when to stop (iirc elite something or other on my fb page have done a fair few).
with regards to remap p-torque is down your way iirc, its where i got my ibiza mapped and where i will be going when i eventually get the leon mapped.
edit- also i have heard you need to make sure the rollers are 4wd ones as it can send it into limp mode on 2wd ones  (well im sure i have read that somewhere)

Looking good nathy, you on BriSkoda?
The car unfortunately doesn't have launch control as it's running a 7speed DSG "Wet box" rather than the "Dry box"
A few companies now remap the car, Revo, Jabba, Shark, APR, I'm sure one of those will be near.
Regarding getting it on the rollers it's fine, I had mine on the rollers last week :
Enjoy the new car
