Does look a cracking colour!

I'm wanting to order, but cant decide on my colour! I was going towards indium grey, but grey is a very common car colour now. Anybody ordered/taken delivery of a black one? Interested to see what the standard wheels look like against this colour.

Always worth checking the used car section of VW's website for nearly new examples for sale. There's currently a mk7.5 GTI in deep black pearl with the standard Parker alloys (assuming it's the GTI you're thinking of getting). The video clip shows the wheels better than the photos;

2020 Polo GTI Plus; Pure White, DSG (because they all are)
Gone but not forgotten;
2016 Polo GTI; Blue Silk
2011 mk6 Golf GTD; Carbon Grey
2007 mk5 Golf GT (2.0 170bhp TDI version); Deep Black Pearl
2002  mk4 Golf GTI (the 150 bhp diesel version); Deep Black Pearl

Good spot, I was looking for DSG, that's a good price as a manual though, tempted to enquire!

I like...nice contrast against the dark iron blue and the red stripe complements the gti stripe....makes the car look sportier IMO.

I like them and if I was buying a GTI now, they are the wheels I would order.

What colour is that car? Too dark for indium grey and doesn't look like Isaac blue, could be the lighting though??

500? Thats pretty reasonable really.

I wonder how much they project sideways though - ie curb risk...

Pretty sure that is Isaac blue....I have seen a lot of images of Isaac blue (not in real life yet) and it looks different in nearly ever pic.
