Really think the wheels make a difference. I reckon the CS will look great in the metal.

Agreed. The standard wheels are so horrific, literally anything else would be an improvement. Perhaps even set of space savers.

I’d like to see real life images of a car on the 19” estorils as I think they’re potentially the nicest.

Like the Mk7's, they where god awful too

I think the KR looks just a shade away from old man burgundy!
All it needs is hearing aid beige interior to complete the nightmare  :sick: :sick: :whistle: :whistle:

not seen the KR yet but the photos people have put on here look a whole lot better than the others I’d seen online - thought it was horrible before. Those wheels are still disgusting.

It's a nice enough colour but not sporty in my opinion.

Saw a KR T-Roc next to a red Polo in a showroom. Quite different (not sure exactly what 'red' the Polo was but similar to TR). KR is very nice colour but it isn't a 'sporty red' that you associate with fast Golfs. It is better suited to Passats, Arteons, SUVs and the like.
