Off-Topic: how common are MK5 Gti's  in the UK? I've only seen 2 in Belgium


Live on the South Coast, and when we ordered ours, I didn't see that many around.

Since we collected ours 2 weeks ago, I'm starting to see quite a lot around - but they're mostly dark colours, which I feel makes the car a lot harder to distinguish from all other Mk V's. 

We went for red with 18's, which makes it pretty clear you're in a GTI  :evil:
'02 TVR Tamora
'05 Golf GT TDi 140 3 dr
'06 Golf GTI (belongs to the missus) - red, 5dr, 18", leather, 6CD, armrest

Visited dealer today, this is what I think it 'll be :

3d Black pearl DSG
Sat Nav
VW Sound
18"
Leather
Sunroof
DSG wheel
xenon

dealer told me not to get VW carkit, instead they will install parrot bluetooth kit
he also proposed to get a Candy White 3d, he wants to get one himself.
they don't sell much GTI's here in Belgium, and he said the Candy White is THE color to get.
wife hates it !
but... we are going to Brussels Friday or next week to check out different colours and 3d vs 5d.
I have no kids (yet) and we are planning to get a BMW 5 series next year, so 3d GTI looks better IMHO.

also no electric folding mirrors, and no parking aid
no winter pack, heated seats are std

anyone got the tinted windows ?
wasn't gonna get them but dealer says they look great...
