Nousey is a detailer. I'd have thought a white/black/red/blue car would have shown his skills off.

No xenons? What extras did it come with? Or was it pov spec? Am sure it won't be standard much longer.


I get to show my 'skills' of enough Jaz!  :wink: Agree Black is best when it's clean, but it don't tay that way for long and I don't have the the to be cleaning my own car every other day! Plus I love silver anyway, very underrated and still stunning when corrected and waxed!

Spec as above!  :happy2:

Black is a total bitch of a colour. There's nothing more depressing than spending hours cleaning your car, then it being dirty the next day.

Pirelli's are Uber Nice.  :star:

I love the DSG, and I wouldn't go back to manual given the choice….but I have to agree with you too. A Manual gearbox just gives you that extra bit of confidence and control I think…..but that could just be cos the DSG has made me lazy.  :ashamed:
Sticking it in "D" is far too easy, and then when I try to use the paddles round the track, I forget Im not in "D"  :driver:

Just need lots of track days this year  :laugh:

Looks great Nath, nice colour too, it's a more practical version of the white imo.
Keen to see what you do with it over the coming months. :happy2:

Learn to drive the DSG in manual mode on the steering wheel. I never use D, even trawling around town.

much more fun  :happy2:

No she wasn't around for long, but more due to circumstance than me not liking the car in any way! Yeh I love the seats in the Pirelli, I realise the yellow stitching isn't to everyones taste but it's not as bright as some pics make out!  :happy2:

Yellow or Black calipers?
Yellow grill strip?
Yellow/black Vw wheel centres?
