I get loads of comments on mine, If I pull into the stealers the sales guys come out and have a look, at petrol stations the cashiers say it looks smart. The kids in the street say it's the coolest car ever.
I think there is a general sway towards white, not all cars can carry it off, but if you look at vehicle transporters there certainley seems to be much more white about. I saw a Porsche 911 in white the other day looked awesome.
Guess it's a fashion thing and certainley Apple have helped with the perception of all things white.
More and more manufacturers are showing concept cars in white, saw an advert for a merc the other day in white.
The GTI is a special motor itself, the ED30 makes it more unique, a Candy GTI Ed30 is the icing on the cake.
Re. residuals, stealers will find any excuse to offer bottom book. I'll be looking for private sale to a Golf enthusiast who wants a special motor when I come up up to renew.
