I saw an 18 plate PP 5dr in Tornado red on the weekend. Looked fantastic in the bright sunshine with the red badges and brake callipers. My GTi PP arrives in 3 weeks in Atlantic blue, just hoping it does not look too dull!

Atlantic blue looks good in the sun. I seen one at the weekend. 👍🏻
It was also one of the colours I said I would have to get a car that was already on order.

Agreed.

If you need 5 doors then you might as well buy a Vauxhall Mokka, save ruining a perfectly good GTI :grin:
