That looks mint! as i said before each to there own and i understand why people go for the 18's, but i prefered the monza 2's (think thats what they were called) on the mk5 to the shadows.
So do i.  :smiley:

FYI - Monza 2s are the 18''. 17'' are just Monzas. The shadow part is pretty self explanatory.

Yeah it's the 18" ones with the grey inserts i meant, i'm not sure about the black on the shadows, personally i don't think they suit it (PERSONALLY!)

Well if they really believe its the wheels stopping it selling then its not unknown for dealers to simply change them by changing the spec of a customers car who wants 17s by ordering it with 18s on. Then doing a sly switcharoe when it arrives, seen this done more than once when there was a misbuild :wink:. or even order them as spare parts.
I think its more than simply the wheels stopping this car from selling.

My message maybe reads a bit wrong.  He didn't say it was the wheels stopping the car selling - just the fact that it was over £30k.  Most people would rather pick their own options on a car for that sort of money.  He was just amazed at the spec of it and the person ordering never bothered with 18's!

not just the shadows.  the alloy is different, like diamond cut if it is not.  so it shines in the light..
