It's a strange decision by VW.
It should be available for all the performance Golf's with Lapiz strictly for the R (even though I'm not a fan)
The red badges and brake calipers contrast perfectly with the carbon grey.

Looks great. I'd have a hard job choosing between carbon grey and reflex silver next time...
Not that hard to be honest. There really is no comparison when you see them side by side. Although reflex silver is certainly easier to keep clean.

A day of cleaning, claying, hoovering and changing back to the summer Nogaro wheels, in prep for the cars first service at VW tomorrow morning

Pretty impressed at my winter tyres - just 1mm of tread used in 5 months/7k miles after I put them on at the end of October

All that work, then a bloody bird comes along and sh!ts all over it  :grin:
