Et voila! The wheels and the colour were spot on for me and it has Car Net App, sadly no bucket seats but I can live without them and I suspect VW would of added at least £1k to the price so I'm happy.

Mark 5 GTi was sold via the classified ads on here and will hopefully re-appear with her new owner soon.

I'm not really in to modifying and she seems quick enough! German plates (damn your posts Booth!), audi 12v dummy cover and replacement footrest are about as much as i think is needed. I've only had a chance for a quick wash following a 200 mile drive home, will try and get some sealer on it asap.







That is absolutely gorgeous, works really well with the CS black accents and 3dr just looks so much better for a hot hatch.

Reflex silver looks really bland on the regular GTi, but this and the R just seem to work really well.

Enjoy.

Thanks! If I'd bought an R it would of been reflex silver too. In fact the new 7.5 colour palette was a big factor in getting a mark 7 now.

Looks great in Reflex Silver, not really a silver car fan but that does work.

Is there any reason why it has a red GTI badge on front and silver on back?  :huh:

It's a red badge on the back - just a bad photo.

Collecting my Indium Grey GTI 5dr DSG tomorrow... Ordered 11th May and turned up 2 weeks ago but issues with paperwork for finance/lease docs has meant it's been sat. Will be sure to get some pics up although seems like theres a few in same spec already  :smiley:

Well first drive and got to say, better than I thought. Too much info available so spent ages messing with both displays!

Here's a quick picture on the way back from the dealer in Tamworth, took the back roads through Ashbourne and Bakewell  :cool:

Looks beautiful. Almost exactly as I hope to be driving in a few months except I have splashed out on the upgrade 19" Brescia.

Thanks, got a bit carried away with a filter on Instgram so to be fair it is quite a bit lighter. Will post some better pics at the weekend as got some nice products to try out on it.
