Oh YES!

Red stitching everywhere!  :cool:
Outside looks / bodykit  :tongue:
Wheels are OK  :wink:
Golf Ball Gear Knob  :tongue:
Colour coded bits :wink:

Oh no...

That fabric on the seats - Any seat for that matter ain't for me  - never been a fan of tartan seats :sick:
That's no cover on the gas pedal - that IS the gas pedal!  :sick:
It had better have the chocks in coz that front end is WAY to high!  :sick:
(I think you will find the red thing hanging down from the rear view mirror is the warning for the chocks BTW)

Hmmm, not sure. Not sold on the red stitching on the interior. Those alloys smack of aftermarket and lose some of the 'class' of the 18" Monzas IMHO. Also, I have the DSG GTi and my accelerator is black rubber. ;)

I would be happy with the extra 30bhp, tho - the rest you can keep. :)

the suspension seems high, have they got the transport chocks in still?

yeah they have still got the suspension blocks in. They had only rolled out the transporter that day.


i want 3 door pics :angry:

What do you think the red one is?

The wheels will look much better with the centre caps on (these were in a bag in the boot along with accelerator pedal, mats, and other bits) and when the suspension drops!

I'm sure its very nice, very quick, very comfy, very safe. very quiet, very red, very expensive, very rare, very etc etc.
I still prefer the Mk2 though !!  :wink:

Excellent pictures Turbobatch. The reflex silver looks so good, especially from behind.

I think that the flash has highlighted the red stitching even more in the pic. Unless you are thinking it makes it look like the wheel of a 1986 MG Metro...................Nooooooooo!

i personally think that interior is superb, love everything about it, especially the seats  :cool:

prefer the silver one, white would look great i think.

As for the wheels, not convinced. I like them as these are a wheel that I want to get on my (imagionary) mark 4 when i get one. But they just arent nice enough for a limited edition GTI

Agreed.
The wheels look very ordinary indeed, not a patch on the Monzas.
I'm with Phantom - yes to the 30bhp, but I'd pass on everything else.

Roll on the black one's!

Have to say that i seriously hope the blocks are in as it looks like a 4x4 at that height!  :sick:

Still sure that the lower section of the valance needs to be black like the R32.

Still happy with the 3 door - 5 door looks well ordinary!

Good potential!
