Retro mk8 US of A style

I’m not really into tattoos but these aren’t too bad.

Oh, and there’s a car too.

It doesn’t look as bad as i thought it would but kudos to VW of America for supporting and encouraging this, recognising car enthusiasts wants.
VW Germany do specials for Worthersee too, but VW UK? We just get corporate blandness which is a shame as we are one of the biggest markets for hot hatches. And I guess that’s the problem, we just buy them no matter what so efforts aren’t really required.
