I agree, in GTD guise, TR is a winner ;)



Here is another pic, its a demonstrator I drove last month, apparently its sold now though.

Yeah, looks nice.  I saw a GTD in CSG the other day and I wasn't sold on that colour and wheel combo.  With the grey/silver accents on the GTD, red works really well.

May just be my opinion as well, but I love these alloys!!!! More so than these 19" santiagos. Bit neddy perhaps but i already have plans for a revo remap when it comes out, break callipers painted like the sport and sound package you get in Ireland and darker tints. Should look quality in deep black...I hope  :laugh:  Spoke to the sales lad Ive ordered my car through earlier, hes driving about in a GTD. Going down Sunday for a spin, cant wait

Agreed, they are better than the 19s, but for me, not as nice as the 18s on the GTI - biased naturally!  :grin:  It'll look stunning in DPB...when clean...good luck with that! ;)

:embarrassed: Damn...that looks good!!!!!! Wrong choice me thinks with the DBP

DBP is better ... provided you clean it. (Ah, Gryzor you beat me to it, ha)

TR on a GTD is hard to beat.

I passed a white GTD the other day on the road so only got a quick look at it.
First impressions were, that Golf looks different somehow as it was approaching but I wasn't blown away.
Which is a disappointment as I'm hoping that to be my next car.

I don't even think it had DRLs on it and if they were on they certainly never stood out.

Did the early GTD/GTIs have Xenon lights with the DRLs around them?

The launch model demo GTI I drove at Vindis Cambridge did have them.  I had the sales chap turn them on so I could see, but I didn't snap any pics.  The "U's" were there though.

For me that's all part of the appeal - it doesn't jump out and scream, "look at me", but it's different enough from the normal Golf.
