A white and a red GTD side by side - the white being mine  :smiley:

Not seen one on road all year and go and park next to one tonight the day after getting mine, as picked up Pizza, typical! and just convinced me that white is the best colour  :wink:

Only kidding looked great in red too.

White GTI pulling in to Asda's Lincoln, about 1pm. First one I've spotted. Made me realise how good mine must look on the road to other drivers, as that one looked the nuts!  :smiley:

They are like buses. I haven't seen another gti/gtd in Brum since release. This morning around 8.40 I saw a DPB gti with 19s on holloway head (if anyone knows Brum) and a TR GtD on hagley road by five ways literally 2 mins later.  I know not all owners are on here but nice to see other drivers out there.

After months and months of not seeing another on the roads I've seen several now in the last few weeks around Devon.
The first one I keep seeing is a white  :roll eyes: (typical) 5 door and the others all seem to be company car GTDs (assuming company car drivers as they don't even bother to make eye contact).
VW must've really got going on the production of RHD ones now.

Well not seen it... As i was planning to take a test drive in the only one left in a garage in/near Brighton/Worthing.... Was booked to take a test drive next weekend in a GTD, and it's just been bought :) !! So i almost spotted one ;)

Not seen a GTi or GTD yet :( apart from the internet car porn variants :(

Mine should be here in early December, so mine might be the first I see! (Beautiful Mk6 White GTi round the corner from me though).

I saw a blue GTI today. Some 70 year old driving it.

Honestly, hated that colour. Why is that even an option on that car???

Also just a side note, not spotted recently, but when I went to France in July, I saw new MK7 Golf GTD's next to each other. One french, the other from Czech Republic.
Recently sold my GTD.

I haven't seen any MK7 GTD/GTI's in Berkshire other than my GTD! I can't be the only one.

I have seen some guys in Crowthorne, Berks in what I think is the new Polo GTI, looks great in black with GTD style exhaust and GTI alloys and at £20K for 180BHP will be a good buy!

Not so much as seen a spotted car, but saw a VW transporter today.

3 GTI's and a GTD on that transporter, could be someone's on here. Saw it on the M5 near junction 9.

A red 3dr GTI with what looked to be a Pan Roof
A Silver 5DR GTI
A White 3DR GTI

And a Silver 5DR GTD.

I saw a very slow looking red 5 door GTD (63 plate) on Bridge Street, Manchester at about 5.15pm today. OK. It was parked...... :grin:
