A mk7 R will never look that good

Funny you should say that snoopy my wife saw one parked up in the local supermarket and she said it looked plain.

I know!  The mk6 is a better looking car with nicer lines, and whenever I see a mk7 I think that, but then I thought the same moving from a mk5    I'll make it look nice 

@charlie - buy your own magazine, you tight git 

@seabrook - someone has to fight the corner for black cars 

Thanks all for your comments.  It is lovely to see your car in print and if you get the chance to do it next year, go for it.

Haha, have you had the magnifying glass out dubber?  I even wore black clothes to minimise reflections.

When I'm surveying building I do my best to make sure I'm not reflected in any windows. I don't always get it right tho'.

if you are absolutely desperate to see one, there's a profile pic at the top of my flickr page 

Nah, I'm not that fussed.

Even using a polariser filter (which I did) you sometimes can't avoid it!

Ooh, a withering retort    Glad to hear it.

Hey Phil, didn't know that was a forum member's car.  Congrats on the article.  Your car looks amazing and I think you just edge it on the cleanliness front   

It's nice to see it in print isn't it?

[phil1975]

I completely agree with you Rebecca its a nice record to have with the car and Neil the editor is a nice guy to deal with as well.

No, 'fraid not.  Am Canterbury bound for next few months. My other half is just about to start weeks of radiotherapy and chemo - tough time ahead   
Just had to cancel our summer holiday too, but not important in the great scheme of things.

The VW Driver mag article was a welcome distraction for a day.  Hope I haven't bummed everyone out.
