Only ever seen one white one around the eastern side of Leeds (which might be Gilly's I suppose). Otherwise none. We're probably too poor here up north to buy them - I'm now living in a cardboard box as I had to sell the house to get it!!!!

You've got your priorities spot on!!!! :cool:

Saw a black 4 door Golf GT on the A40 around 5.15 pm sporting 20" wheels. Looked truly fabulous.
Tooted the driver as I came alongside. Young man. Southern European. UK car. We spoke. Asked him where he got the wheels. He said he bought them with the car. He did not seem too sure whether they were 19" or 20". Looked like 20" to me.
Have to find out which wheels these are. Most unusual. Very me. Very bling!

They were chunky like Monza Shadows but with spokes. Very little spacing between the extra wide spokes. Looked fabulous.

Quite possibly me as I am over in east leeds a fair bit. Although i think there are 3 other white GTI's near me and 2 Golf R's. One red, and the other black. The black one looks the doggs danglies :cool: :cool:

give us a wave next time you see me, if i stick 2 fingers up at you.... then its me  :evil:

That wheel on the Golf I saw on the A40 could be 18" 20 spoke A3 alloys. But they looked much bigger.

On second thought, they are not. :rolleyes:

I've seen a "white GTi" in a couple of parts of eastern Leeds so that may well explain your comment R32UK. I'll give you a friendly 2 fingers next time as a gesture of mutual (dis)respect!!!
