Congrats :smiley: Rolfe for one will be ecstatic - another graphite blue GTI!! I have to say I'm pretty surprised a Frenchman would go for that colour, but horses for courses, as they say :smiley:

Get ready for the agonizing wait. Bon courage :grin:

Thanks Froggy,

Ah, what cliché do you have about froggies & colours ?
I know we have usually pretty bad tastes overall, I just hope Blue Graphite does no fall under that category !  :grin:

Hehe, no problem. I just didn't think anyone over here in France would choose that colour. The French seem to go for more neutral colours like silver, black, white or grey. But, hey, the main thing is it's a GTI :smiley:

You can never have too much of a good thing!  And besides, the car is currently filthy dirty under a patina of road salt, and the road, driveway and fields lost under about 18 inches of snow.  :embarassed:

Rolfe.

Pics of a filthy, road-salt-encrusted car, barely visible between mounds of snow?

You some sort of pervert?   :wink:

Rolfe.

If I am not mistaken isn't tinted rear window a standard item on the GTI?

Dark tinted rear glass is optional in France, I believe.

Some more pics for Fred:

In the UK yes. Not sure about abroad though which is where the OP is from I think.
