Maybe I am wrong but the photo showing the rear seems to show LED lights. Yeah nice alloys. Wouldn't have them personally though

Personally I'm not too keen, too much black.  

I know many of you hate the 18" silver monzas but I love them against the black of my car.  That said, it is sitting below a coat of the white stuff at present and I don't mean milk!!

Rolfe reckons she smells Spring!! I wish! no sign of it here.  Oh well guess I'd better go shovel.

I like it, but the 2 blacks don't match.

I think it should go back to the dealer for a warranty repair as the suspension has collapsed  :grin:

Yes it is Germany and its a very popular modification to fit the R LED rear lights over there. It is also a popular option to have the GTI LEDs from the factory but they seem a much lighter colour than the ones shown on this GTI.

Look.

I thought we'd covered this in detail before.

Black wheels are just wrong - unless you're less than 20 and your name is Daz.
