I like wheels because they go round and are shiny.  :laugh:

Refreshing honesty  :laugh:
MKV GTI | Reflex Silver | 5-dr | Anthracite 17" | Manual | Highline MFD | Cruise | Revision 'D' DV | Dirty Pipes |

The GTD is like a blow up doll. The GTI is like a proper woman. Sure the doll might last longer, and the woman might have higher running costs, but which would you rather have?

Thanks :smiley: Following several PMs, here's a new pic for those trying to decide what 'carbon grey' looks like. The slight bluish tint at the front of the car is caused by the polarizing filter on the camera.

Frog,

For some reasons, you car looks much more glossy than other Carbon grey, I have seen around.
I reckon that you use a top camera, but do you apply also wax or someting ?

Nice shot

Thanks :smiley: I have waxed the car since I got it, but I think the 'extra shine' is, as you say, probably down to the camera (a Canon digital SLR) and the polarizer.

Please stop taking pictures of your car - you're making me jealous.  :grin:

Great photo by the way.

Here's a photo of the vehicle I drive around most of the time. The GTI is for best :cool: Does that make you feel any better?  :wink:
