If I was ordering a new Golf, it'd be just like that. GTD in white with the Charlestons. I loved 'em on the mk5 and still love 'em on the mk6.
In fact maybe next year I'll get a six month old one to replace my GTI.

Still prefer the Vancouvers over those, the vancouvers do have 5 out of the 10 legs polished mind.

Really?   :huh:  Can't say I've ever noticed. I've polished them many a time and they all look the same to me.

Way off topic and why not? :grin:
...... The Monza Shadows are unique as they are not spoked like nearly every other wheel out there.
They are de best! :cool:

Now I've got the monza shadows back on I would agree with you there am1w.

But my quest for the perfect GTI alloy will continue.

Yup look harder.  The 5 pronounced spokes faces are polished.

Every time I see a Candy White GTi or GTD I think that the black side spoilers just don't look right.

Need to be colour coded.
Mk6 GTi - returned to leasing company after 3 great years and replaced with :

Mk5 GTi - Edition 30 - Revo 1 and some tweaks - 310 bhp. Its a better car than the Mk6  - Now sold and replaced with :

Mk6 R - Rising Blue 5 Door. Won't be standard 270bhp for long

Family Car : Mercedes ML420 with 360 bhp
Looking at Porsche Macan as replacement
