One thing I'd say about that R photo is that the nose is hidden in shadows and you can't see the big honeycomb grill...

Which is the thing people say they don't like about the Mk8.

Its clearly a flattering photo, but don't we all look better in dimmer light  :laugh:

Black Estorils anyone????

manliest names

Is that 59700 euros?! I know it's not the UK but £52k for a Golf is BIG money. So many options at the £50k mark!

Presumably this is why leasing is becoming more popular in Germany.

Guess it will be.

Back to the white one, I actually prefer that to an all-black one I've seen which just looks too much and loses all the design details.

No idea why they only have 3 colours to choose from though? That's just poor. Silver, grey, red are all good colours for the R. They surely could offer them as premium colours at £1000-2000 and people might go for it.

Perhaps will be good for companies like this https://www.logicvpc.com/liquid-colour-film/ who do peelable paint.
