That really looks class! Nice find

I'm tempted to change my order for Moonstone to pure white and the 19's  :laugh:

It does look fabulous in that video  :cool:

Maximus, options are a personal thing but honestly I think the car needs 19’s. Spec them. Nothing wrong with moonstone though.

Yes, I’m warming to the mk8 Clubsport and it looks good in white, but I think it’s quite a colour sensitive car and IMO doesn’t look great in some of the available colours.

If I was considering buying one it’d be a choice of only two colours; Pure White or Moonstone Grey, and I think Moonstone Grey would win, although I’d be quite happy with a white one.

VW just need to offer the option of a decent set of wheels that aren’t diamond cut :whistle:.
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

I’d have gone Moonstone if I’d factory ordered, such an easy shade to look after and I’m a fan of grey anyway.
The polished wheels are a shame, I reckon it won’t be long before something like the black Estorils are available as either stand alone or part of a pack, same as the black roof and mirror caps like on a Polo GTI.
Just as easy to add your own wheels though and take them with you when you part company with the car again. At least that way you don’t suffer the horrid wheel spats.
The standard Richmond alloys have actually really grown on me, they just sit far too far into the arches, same as a mk7 but 2mm less offset again
