The red is by far the standout colour. Greys are okay but a bit dull.

I'm with you on the red. 👍

Once again the only shade of blue available is navy blue unless you're buying an R.  :angry:

Tbh as much as I love Lapiz I’m not sure how it would work with the gti red accents.

Yeah I get that, but still I did quite like the Mk5 in Laser Blue



Would still be fine on a GTD or GTE. There is also the  factory 'Black Pack' to omit the red accents shown on the Irish brochure that was leaked the other week.

Tbf my mk5 was in blue graphite which goes to show I don’t follow my own advice. Looked very blue some days. I don’t even remember laser blue!

Not sure why anyone would buy a gti and remove the red accents though.

I wouldn't remove the red accents either, although I expect there may be some that would.

Laser Blue was an early doors colour for the Mk5, which VW cunningly discontinued shortly before the R32 went on sale. Presumably because it was too similar to the signature Deep Blue colour it was using to promote the R32.

Will you be loaning your Clubsport to Andrew Chapple for a cheeky review?

A blue one came along the road when I was walking back home this morning. Was very very suprised to see one yet. Not sure the front red works with it personally but The colour worked on the rest of the car though all imo if cause.
