Not a sniff, however my missus loves it, costant nagging to give her the keys! I think it appeals to both sexes.........depends what colour its in though  :lipsrsealed:

right about color
I think women (most of them anyway) are not keen on white. It gotta be black, or maybe blue...

100% dissagee pal, my mums got a white car and my girlfriend wants one, and i think black is the most manly colour bar none  :smiley:

Yep, your right Joe. My missus loves white cars, same can be said for all her mates. I get good comments about the colour of my car whenever I am giving her mates lifts. Everyone seems to be going nuts for white cars in England at the moment.

polo   :laugh:

i heared before that a "woman's car" in a designer's eyes must have a mirror on the driver's sun visor, for obvious reasons, if not its deffinatly a man's car.
however the gti's have these and im sure alot of other cars like an evo or skyline must, so it's probably a myth :shocked:

the wife loves the golf on White, but isn't keen on White in other cars, she prefers nice blues

Ps who cares if it's a womans car?, I see alot of women driving normal mk5 golfs but not Many in gti's

well, first of all, you give them FREE lifts, so of course they comment on the car
secondly, you give them FREE lifts in a "pocket" ROCKET!  :cool:

I guess it is all sampling error - most girls I met prefer black or maybe blue...
