Title: Is this Jazz Blue??
Post by: MrTurner on 31 August 2008, 19:41

We're considering another Golf as our main car, and ideally would be looking for a MK4, either the V5 or V6.

Question is - what is the correct name of this blue:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2000-Volkswagen-Golf-V6-4Motion_W0QQitemZ260277372256QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item260277372256&_trkparms=39%3A1%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A7%7C240%3A1318&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14#ebayphotohosting

Is it Jazz Blue?  If so, anyone know the sales figures, or how often a V5 or V6 come up in this blue?

I defo would, and prob in black, but the wife gets the decision on this..  The regular GTI's don't seem to pack enough punch the V5 seems to have just enough, and the V6 is about there (we're selling a Megane 225, so trying not to lose too much power!).

Who cares if it's Jazz Blue (it is).

Does it give you Jazz Hands?

If it does, buy it.

I used to own a jazz blue Mk4. Nice colour, really deepens after a good polish.

I think this would have looked a great colour on the MKV :cool:

I bought some touch up paint for Jazz blue a few years ago, seem to remember VW had two listed, one was solid and the other a slight metallic version of Jazz blue.  I reckon thew one in the ebay link is the solid variety.

But then I could be talking out of my a*se.

I'm not certain, but I think your right as my colour code was called Jazz Blue Pearl, IIRC.

I think lower spec models had the solid version.  Certainly seen some Jazz Blue Lupos and Polos that don't have the metallic/pearl finish.

You need a mk4 R32. They come in the best colour ive seen a golf in. Some kinda Blue. I love it. Wish the anniversarys came in it.

Seen 1 on ebay - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2003-VOLKSWAGEN-GOLF-R32-BLUE_W0QQitemZ200251295570QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item200251295570&_trkparms=39%3A1%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A7%7C240%3A1308&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

Any one know the name of this colour?? Wish i could afford to run one of these bad boys.
The anni feels nearly just as good tho :cool:

I think, If i rememeber rightly, On the golfs the solid blue was used on all the Mk4's and the Metallic was on the Mk3's...they are both slightly different blues so get the wrong match and it looks w@nk!!

I have to be so careful with bodywork guys and mine...

Nope.   My Mk4 had a pearl fleck in it.

Seen a V5 in this colour and beige leather.  I'm not sure - got to take my wife to see it, see if she really likes it!  Perhaps with black leather..

Think it's defo a V5, the V6 is going to be a bit more than we have to spend, and will then leave us with no saftey net if things do start costing.
