Yep I'm on the R forum, it's pretty much rammed with MK7 chat at the moment, tales of woe and wow, so decided to spread my wings for some MK6 banter.  :wink:

I love the rising blue of the Golf R its a pity you can't have a GTD or GTI in that colour.

I enquired when I was buying my Mk6 and you can have any of over 40 colours, the only drawback is the price, at the time it was over £2000.

Easy enough to find out, go and have a read on that forum.  You don't have to register.  :wink:

Paint issues on delivery, some cars coming without certain spec that was ordered, some with DSG issues to name a few.  :wink:

Thanks for the helpful reply. I've registered on the R forum and I'm currently look for a MK6 R unfortunately a car at a local dealer I was going to test drive sold yesterday! I take it you're enjoying yours?
