Did you not test drive it to see if it lived up to it ?

Metallic Black....I didn't really want to wait 12 weeks so the choice was a bit limited...it was that or carbon grey.

My current 05 GTI is also metallic black...so I'm not exactly adventurous!

i Know! ...isn't it shocking!!

it came down to this or an S3 at almost 2k more...and they are supposedly being replaced end of next year.

anyway...I'm happy and I guess that's all that matters  :smiley:
