I just think it suits the size, aggressive stance, and accents of the car really well.  When I got my Mk5 it was a no-brainer as soon as I saw the colour options.  Sure it's all down to personal taste, but I genuinely don't think any other colour apart from black suits it.  Having owned a black car in the past, never again!  So, white it is :smiley:

Have to agree. I've a 2 year old white MK6 GTD from new and it gleams today like it did when new. Incredibly easy colour to mind, i never see swirls or marks on it like you inevitably do on dark colours... and suits the lines and shape of the Golf so well IMO.
The available metallics, apart from carbon grey perhaps, are all a bit uninspiring. I've also had black before and loved it but was bloody hard work to keep.

Colour is a very personal choice though.

Yup. Everybody says white must be a nightmare to keep clean, but it's the complete opposite.  I do think black as a colour is gorgeous on almost any car, but, as we have experienced first-hand, it's tough to keep it looking nice, and it shows marks much easier.
