Title: Atlantic Blue
Post by: Toon on 24 October 2017, 11:57

I have a factory order for a GTI Performance in Atlantic Blue.

I haven't actually seen an Atlantic Blue in the flesh - ordered it from internet swatches and thought it looked fab. I hope I actually like it when it does turn up!

Anyone got an Atlantic Blue Performance on here? Or photos?

Always worth checking the VW website - the used cars section. There are usually some nearly new examples of specific model and colour combinations; you just need to set the filters to find what you want. Here’s an Atlantic Blue mk7.5 GTI;

Thank you.
Phew! - it looks great (same wheels and trim as my order too - the red GTI badge will set it off nice I reckon)

I'm hoping the same. My 7.5 GTI PP landed off the boat over the weekend so should see it in the flesh very soon. I've currently got a Night Blue Mk7 which is just stunning (with the ceramic coat) so here's to VW not changing the colour mix too far!

Does look good. £35k though, well specced but that's ridiculous!

That's what a well spec'd PP costs now  :rolleyes: :laugh:
My list was £35,770! For a golf!! Luckily, didn't pay that.  :whistle:

Exactly, it might be the list price but you wouldn't want to pay that :shocked:

That colour looks like one big swirl waiting to happen if you don't take a LOT of care with your cleaning regime.
Or it could be just my blue prejudice airing it's ugly head again :grin:
