How come you've got a black VW emblem or is it just the lighting?

Nice choice of colour! Would love to have the highline too!

God damn how many more diagrams can they fit onto those wiper stalks?!?!?!?

An yeah the black centre on the wheel looks a little strange  :undecided:

it looks grey inside the car, I think its just the light or the flash.

As for the "highline"?? I think this is where the Aussie ones are different. All GTi's come standard like this in Aus (apart from the sunroof, DSG, bi zenons, leather and iPod adapter I had added)

I'm going to give it a god wash this weekend and take some really good photos so you guys can see what differences there are if any.

I thought they were for the US market - the yanks even need instructions printing on every single sheet of this:

Highline MDF only has been added to aussie spec cars for the 08 model. Before that you had to get satnav to get the biggger MDF  :wink:

Pretty sure I have the standard options as you too, closer Oz than you think   :drool:
