Title: Anyone seen a Tungsten GTi in the flesh ?
Post by: drisser on 05 February 2015, 19:05

Think I saw one parked up today, was too bronze grey to be reflex silver, and was too light to be limestone.. have to say it looked absolutely gorgeous.. the red highlights especially worked so well..

I was thinking that colour might work on the new GTE with the blue accents/trim....

Nope, it's always been an option. :)


Imo it looks absolutely stunning in the flesh but is so hard to photograph, it always looks gold/bronze which ruins it.

I'm a big fan of Tungsten, it's surprisngly rare on the tin tops but a lot of Golf cabrios seem to be in this colour.
