I have a golf mk5 gti 2007 in tornado red paint and it chips so easly. Does any one else have the same prob? I had a mk4 gti in the same colour and its paint was much better. I have had to get the two front wings sprayed to take the bad look away.

Mine is 07 edition 30 in tornado red and that is picking up so many stone chips, so your not alone.

Had mine a day and it was a trip to buy touch up paint for the rock hit on the bonnet.

06 plate with 50k miles and the bonnet is covered in stone chips. I think it's mainly due to my high speed driving because the stones hit harder!
