Its white, Its the in colour now but later...., and its a pig to keep unmarked.
White will put alot of normal people off, (not talking enthusiasts here)
Fully loaded will also put alot of normal people off, Its why if you spec a car up on an order they often ask for a bigger deposit then they would for a standard model as they take the risk you may cancel and it will be harder for them to shift it.

If I'd had a Gti in the past, I'd probably have ordered the GTD 170  -  kind of the best of both worlds. Haven't had a Gti and, at 43 years old, I found myself wanting to put that right  -  years ago, my wife had a 100BHP Tdi and we both loved it so I imagine that the 170 Mark VI is fantastic  -  but maybe it's my age, just that I fancy a 'cool' and out and out fun car  -  Gti it is....

Enjoy in good health, whatever you do.

Try silver... Takes about six months before it even starts to look dirty!  :evil:  :afro:

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 for that , yes I agree it does look better at the back , i'm not sold on the pipes on the new GTI but still both cracking cars though!! I am on the verge of doing a deal but the ball is there court? I have offerd them 25,000 for a GTD fully loaded but its white? The car is 28,500 at the moment and they cant shift it ??? thanks Steve  :wink:

Good luck, let us know how you get on with the price you've offered.

keep your ed30 - send it to revo  :wink:

imo looks better than the mk6 and certainly alot quicker than the gti/gtd and after the revo treatment quicker than the  'R'

but i like quick cars, not just the badge to impress the neighbours...
