There are some nice modded MK6's about these days although I have to say I'm not a fan of this one, just don't like the wheels.

I love this one:

It might look acceptable when pumped up, but it looks very deflated and distorted when resting. Surely, a car needs to look pleasant all the time. That car is possibly a niche within a niche.
Long may it stay that way.

I think you're missing the point. It doesn't deflate when you turn it off, it stays where you put it. Air ride is used to run cars supper low but have the ability at the flick of a switch to run a more respectable ride height for speed bumps and car parks as well as being able to "lay frame" in show grounds.

I couldn't find a golf but here's an example of an Audi on air on the move.

Its not really my sort of thing, but I do like the wheels.
