I remember seeing them around and thinking, what a bizzare looking car :laugh:


Imagine trying to buy decent wax for that, like the Dodo ones. "What colour is your car?" "Erm wellllll it's red and yellow and........" "ah right"

haha i would love one of these!  It would be so easy finding body parts!  would never have to worry about matching the colour LOL

Its a bloody horrible look but at the same time its kinda cool, coz its sooo diffrent!   i recon if you gave it a good euro stance it would be kinda cool!

Would look good on BBS with the centres painted a different colour on each wheel  :cool:

i can see the headlines now, After a serious ongoing investigation sadly a major Kiddy fiddling ring was unearthed amongst the DUB community, headed by the one they called ''Jon'' he would use his Harlequin coloured MKIII (assembled from various scrap yard parts) to ''pose'' as a LEGO salesman,

or its VW's care in the community equal oppertunities programme to comply with EU regulations.

''and here we can see the chairman on the VAG group presenting the trophy to the winner of the LTD edition GOLF MKIII Design Competition''

summed it up well mate!

Why bother with one of these, its bad enough drivng a mk3 with a dent, without having like a multi coloured pannel.

I love these cars... I know... it seems weird... it's the only "special" edition car we really got here in North America... you guys all have the Color Concepts, Jazz and etc. editions. We need to have something to be proud of.

Would look good on BBS with the centres painted a different colour on each wheel  :cool:

Funny that you say that!
