2018 MY Changes.............

[Briggsy]

Sorry mate, didn't mean to offend and it is only my worthless opinion so just ignore me
PS
Is it too late to change your order?

Will be placing my order as soon as the GTI Performance becomes available. Will not be ordering 19 inch alloys due to crap roads where I live.

It is your opinion and you are entitled to it. However, using words like ugly, terrible, horrendous and a disgrace - is a bit strong. In a recent poll here - it would appear that 2/3 of people are happy enough with the Parker alloys. Only 1/3 ordered 19 inch alloys.

Word

People go a bit far in their descriptions, fine you don't like things, I don't like the look of a Kia Picanto but I don't go around slating it at every opportunity. People have different tastes thankfully or we'd all be driving the same cars and how awesome would that be.

You don't like the Parker alloys will suffice, move on.

I too will be having the Parker alloys on my car because after seeing them in the flesh they look alright on the car, plus I'm from Yorkshire so I'm tight and don't want to pay extra for some 19's with a bone crushing ride on our filthy pot hole ridden streets.

I think the words I choose to use are perfectly accepable to be honest.
The Austin alloys I have on my car have been openly slagged off by numerous members on here but I take it on the chin and I try not to get too upset
I'm just glad that VW have seen the sense to offer a different 18'' wheel option to the Parker.

Refurbing those Seville wheels looks difficult!

[Daz Auto]

To be honest I don't really get the whole, "this alloy is more beautiful than that alloy." I'm far more interested in how they effect the over all ride and handling of the car.

I think they are growing on me and the more I see them the more I actually like them. I'll still be going for 19's on my GTi

If I did chose them I personally wouldn't give a toss if someone slagged them off but if a Ford driver slagged my car off then...........

Briggsy, sorry, but can I just check but does your dictum extend to superlatives as well as criticism?

For the record, I quite like the Parker alloys, fortunately on this occasion my feelings are adequately covered by 'like'.

@Watts, that made me laugh. Thanks and just what I need after spending a few hours driving a Merc GLE. It should be called boaty Mac boatface.

[Briggsy]

Briggsy, sorry

Apology accepted.

[Watts]

Briggsy, sorry

Apology accepted.

Excellent! So all friends? But, I'd be very grateful if you could give me some guidance as I have some pretty strong opinions on a new to me quick detailer product and I don't want to overstep the mark.

.....................the least worst springs to mind. Let's face it, VW have lost the plot with their wheels. Diamond cut faces that develop worm, long before the warranty is up, have been the story of their standard wheels for a long time. Meh looking wheels are just lazy. Just down the corridor, Audi have a range of durable, attractive wheels, so it's not impossible.
