Dark violet pearl would be nice to see in real life as would a VW equivalent to Audi Panther Black Crystal

I think it would quite similar to this Ultra Violet Scirocco I saw in the dealers when I was there a couple of weeks ago

Yeah, ultra violet is gorgeous. It's the one colour I'd consider paying more than normal for.

I'm sure it was discussed in the Mk6 section a few years back (or have I imagined it?) that VW UK can supply custom colours at a price. In the region of £2000. Not bad considering Onyx White is more or less £1000

I can't imagine why VW UK don't offer the option, to try and separate more money from people

It could even be a "GTI Classic" option - pay extra to have classic colours from the past, like Oak Green :D

Just gave Vw Customer care a quick bell to see if there is a change to my build week since I changed to Carbon Grey, am still build week 10 so happy days. The Lassy said I can't see it moving because it's a priority build so it won't move back. It might move forward if anything  :laugh:
So fingers crossed for build week 10
