Again - two 'sports' models, only a single colour in each, that's pretty damn boring!
Agree completely, come on VW if we are customising orders can't we get the same colours as those in Europe do?Quote:

Where's the love for the red, though? That was my first choice. I ended up ordering a white one instead, because I could get my car quicker that way. The United Grey and the black don't look half bad either.
Cheers for your input guys. My thoughts now are as follows: still leaning towards Black, but may change my mind last minute at the dealer to White if I see a really nice one in the showroom :D
Dirt/cleaning I don't forsee as a big issue on a Black car as it will be garaged whilst at home and also parking at work is undercover. Washing the car every 1-2 weeks I would probably do with a new car anyway, regardless of colour.
Only issue now is what colour leather to get??? Black on Black, or Beige on Black? Thoughts? :emo_baghead:
(PS. As BBP said, there are a lack of high res pics of Mk6 TSI in CW. If anyone owns one please feel free to post a pic of your pride and joy)
My MY10 Golf 118TSi in United Grey...

I know it all comes own to opinion but I think it is definitely one of the nicer more classier colours on the golf....
Stoney!
P.s. I accidently hit blue just before I hit vote! So -1 for shark blue and +1 for united grey lol
That does look lovely Stoney.
I agonised over this. The beige leather looks a treat in pictures. A real treat in fact.Quote:

You should also bear in mind that VW leather is not particularly high quality, at least on the Golf, so it will only look good for a couple of years. It is not like the leather you get in a Jaguar, so if you MUST have leather, black is probably the best bet, but remember to keep the leather preserver up to it !
I've never really understood people asking questions like "what colour should I get?" It's your car, get the colour you like best.
In saying that I think the Shark Blue looks unique and could look nice with some bigger rims. Otherwise black or white. Not a big fan of greys and silvers myself.
See? Urbane and sophisticated, just like I said. Mine causes such a stir on the freeway that drivers all around me have to hurry away from me as quickly as they can because their cars are just so bland. :)Quote:
