Finally picked her up this morning!  And you'll be pleased to hear it's as every bit as GOOD as what people have said it is. It's both met & exceeded my expectations.


Looks superb Gung-Ho. Have fun  :laugh:

Thanks Gatsby... I'm sure it's going to be a "Riot!"

Looks really lovely mate health to drive.
I'm maybe one of only a few but I honestly do prefer the Cadiz wheels to the Pretorias :huh:

Thanks for the compliments 'Cossieian'... It was a hard decision but I opted for the 18" Cadiz in the end because I found the 19" Santiago's on my GTi slightly on the harsh side (plus the fact I've also opted for the passive dampers on the R).

I would have been happy with either in terms of "Looks".

What a lovely looking motor!  And you're not the only one who prefers the LB & Cadiz combo  :wink:

Thanks Bud! After two 'White' consecutive GTi's I thought it was time for a change.... LB is a truly stunning colour and the pictures really don't do it justice.  Im really happy with the colour wheel combo & wouldn't have gone for anything different

Thanks JB... It was also sad to see the old girl go... Hope the R will prove to be just as fun & reliable as the old GTi PP
