Funny, I watch the same video and think the white and silver cars in the background look better than the flat light grey in the foreground. I have seen a White Silver Golf in the flesh. IMO the white and silver cars parked either side of it looked much better. But wouldn't it be a boring world if we all liked the same thing.

When I pulled out onto the road today there was a red Mk6 in front of me. I followed it for 2 miles miles then we both were behind two Tungsten Silver AND Reflex Silver Mk7s. As our little procession of 4 Golfs toodled along we passed a red Mk7 which was stopped and indicating right (it was covered in bird poo and looked like it had not been cleaned in a month :rolleyes:). The thing is I live 2 miles past the middle of nowhere! On my way into town today there were 4 other Golfs all in the colours I like. I then thought, are Golfs common or popular :huh: Definitely popular! :grin:

My view is to forget the "exclusivity" factor.
Who knows if colours will be made available on other models in the future, unless it is advertised as a "signature colour".

My advice is to simply choose the colour you like best. I am really pleased with my Atlantic Blue GTD. In the sun, the flakes shimmer and the car looks stunning.

In my view (and it's only a personal choice...!) there are so many white, silver and grey Golfs around, the blue is something different. My last GTD was Limestone, which was nice, but a bit dull. It certainly never shimmered the way the Blue one does now.

But ... we all have different opinions ....!

Because with a 9 month lead time on cars, nobody has got the bloody things yet.

Mine is on a boat, should be at the dealer next week (without fog lights) so I'll get some pictures.
