Apart from my test drive the only one I've seen was last week near Norwich.
Not many about yet, maybe everyone is waiting for 59.
Saw loads in Germany. :drool:
-
seen at least 4 now
-
saw a white one at the barbican in plymouth.
car looks great, but i'm not a fan of white cars- even if its the new black (for the next year or so)
-
Me not seen any either. Only seen 2 on the stealers forcourt, so had an in-depth nosey! :lipsrsealed:
-
Black. Aug 15th.
A11 towards Norwich. Who was it???
-
Seen loads in dealer compounds waiting for the new plate. Also been at dealers when there was more than 1 person ordering them! Only ones i have seen have been demo models. Im guessing most people are waiting for 59 plate.

Norwich VWs demo?
-
Black 3dr with 18" Monzas, saw it at the weekend in Louth, Lincolnshire.
-
See a red 3 door nearly every day on my way to work and he's had it at least 2 month so reckon he works for a dealer. Seen a couple of white ones and a black one recently as well. They don't seem to stand out as much as the MKV did tough.

See a black mk6 GTi in southampton every morning going the opposite way, and also My friend of a salesman at Peter coopers hedge End has adopted his Candy white dealer demo car as he daily/private runner :smiley:
-
Black one in the Glasgow area. Lovely.
Also saw an 09 plate one today but it was the MK V.
-
I have just come back from a 1000-mile drive through France and I didn't see any. In fact, mine is the only MkVI GTI I've seen in person anywhere. Maybe I will have more luck on my trip over to London today?
-
Saw another 09 plate mk6 in silver, but with 17's, yesterday in Gloucester
-
ive seen one everyday but that was my reflection in the shop window the only one ive ever seen on the road :smiley:
-
And theres a black one around the south manchester area, saw it literally ten mins after I'd placed my order & came home with a rather large grin!
-
Seen 4 just yesterday!! ok 2 were at the dealers, and the other 2 were just round the corner and looked like test drives. the silver didnt really stand out much but the red was gleaming and caught everyones attention, mine especially :cool:
-
Can you believe I still haven't seen 1 on the road ! :shocked:
Come on Londoners, sort yourself out !!!!!
-
Have seen a red one and a silver one on the A41 near Chester, both looked good, the back looks better in real life I have to say. It was more the front that looks ordinary, just like any other golf, very had to tell a part a GTI and a standard Golf from the front from a distance.
-
Seen one in the outer suburbs of East Leeds in white. Very nice. That's it. Mine was the only one at the VW Festival at Harewood the other week too.
-
Upshot is enjoy this rarity while it lasts! In a year or so I'm sure there will be loads of Mk6 GTIs about

You in east leeds mate?? I still aint seen one appart from dealers n test dives :embarassed:
-
Yes R32 I am in that neck of the woods and haven't seen the ones in the local stealers (near the footy ground if that's the one you meant) cos they're a bunch of arrogant ****** (fill in the *s as you wish).
I got mine from Donny.
And, yes, Keelaw, you're right. I bet there'll be loads about this time next year.

Didnt get mine from them either. In fact I went in there for the R32 but wasnt given the time of day so went to wakefield instead :angry:
Usually use huddersfield now (where i had seen 4 the other day).. they aint that much better but their manager knows im fussy so tries his best to look after me. Elland rd one are a set of total t0$$ers. Only been treated properly once and that was by a new young salesman. Wouldnt go there if my life depended on it!
Look forward to seeing you around... look out for a candy white 5dr end of next week :cool:

VWs aren't middle-class enough for you to demand proper treatment upon visiting the dealers.

Nothing but excellent service and attitude from mine. Depends how you treat them I suppose.... :wink:

In my book any customer should be treated the same, independent of what they are buying.

I think I saw one about 6.25 this evening, travelling north on the A702 just south of Silverburn. It was white, but quite dirty (oops, hope it wasn't anyone here)! :grin:
Rolfe.
-
Anyone in here from Glasgow drive the V5*** plate in black?
Just passed me this morning. Looks lovely.
-
I've no idea.

Saw my first 'on the road' GTI in a Grey parked outside a school yesterday in a little town near Didcot, a '59 plater it was.
Won't be long before it's a daily occurrence round my way though.

I've seen one in every colour except blue now. :smiley:
Having said that, there's not exactly a lot of colours to choose from is there!
-
i saw another black one in letchworth, herts on sunday. it was being driven by a 50 year old woman! :laugh:
-
Matchboy! what is your point why shouldn't a 50 year old woman drive a GTI? It doesn't say in the spec of VW that the car's limited to 20 something males. I will come clean now and admit to you all that I am 47 years old and a FEMALE!!!!! and drive a GTI!!!!!

nope! its just not as usual to see a more mature lady driving a car like that that's all! it could have been a young lad, in which case i would have put "i saw a black one being driven by a young lad" :smiley:

Within what age bracket? Sadly this is the first GTI I have ever owned mainly due to the fact that it has taken me toreach the age I am to start getting enough decent wages to even contemplate being able to own a GTI. :grin:

I've seen loads of GTI's now in Cambridge.... there are at least 3 Candy White ones, a Silver one and a Red one - all of which I've seen in the past week.
One of the Candy White's has replica 19" Black Lamborghini Gallardo wheels fitted, looks the nuts!
Anyone on here?
-

-

I'm the silver one Tony, have also seen the red one but not that white one, bet it does look pretty amazing.
-
seen a lush dark blue one :cool: different from the black white grey and red :afro:
-
I've got the Blue Graphite one, but it's never been to Oxfordshire.
Sounds as if you've seen a Shadow Blue.
Rolfe.
-
I have seen a GTI at last!
And there was 2 of them, parked next to each other in the Marquis of Granby pub carpark at 5pm tonight on my way out of Newcastle i think they were identical twins of the white 5 door with monza shadow type. very nice too.
-
Having covered 2000miles in mine i am yet to see one on the road or near me :undecided:
(apart from at or around dealers)

you need to move to hertfordshire :grin:
-
The days are still ticking by and I am still to see one on the road lol :shocked:
-
I've seen two or three now. Picked up my fiancee's polo from the stealer last month and there was five waiting to go.
I must say I like the shadows and tornado red looks better on a mk6 than a mk5. Just...
-
I've seen a white 5 door exactly the same as mine around Perry Barr in Birmingham.
:grin:
-
I haven't seen another on the road as yet... i know theres some more in Leeds *Cough* R32UK *Cough*
But i am yet to see another... I think his is the same as mine too "Candy White, 5DR, 18" Monza shadows"

Did see my first one today in Leeds!!! :cool: In black looked subtle but very nice :cool: :cool:

In the Netherlands, I have seen all kinds of colours for the Mk6 GTIs... Mostly DBPs, a few CWs, some UGs and uno TR... In The Hague alone there are at least a dozen GTIs... :drool:
-
Loads round here. The only colour I haven't seen yet is Shadow blue. Also, I haven't seen one on the 17" monzas - they've all had 18's. Following a white one around this morning and I have to say - even though I'm not a fan of white - it did look really good.

I have yet to see a single GTI or GTD on the road.

Ignore the mk5 GTI owner looking at it :wink: , thinking what 90% of mk5 owners often say :smug:

It should be an offense to sell the GTI on 17s. They NEED 18s.
