mixit Posted October 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 JaxA3.. Originally ordered a Candy White after seeing one ready for collection at a stealer. Had 2 dealers drumming the residual thing into me on a Candy and like a fool I beleived em, still say the Whites will be in demand as a 2nd hand buy. Changed to Steel Grey.. I am such a Tart ! .. .. Decided on Red in the end. NO REGRETS AT ALL... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaxA3 Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Seeing the one this morning made me think, realy looked so good. Mine is almoust here would have loved the black but my previous car was a black one, time for a change. Cheers m8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mixit Posted October 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 JaxA3 ... THIS made me change my mind on colours forever. NEVER again will I own a Black Car It was an absolute nightmare to keep clean And as I said, I am such a fussy Tart. It has to look imaculate.

JaxA3 Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 That R32 sure does look very nice. Why the trade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mixit Posted October 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 JaxA3.. The MPG was starting to play on my mind. The way I like to drive, I was only seeing around 19-20mpg. I traded for a 2.0 GT TDi but that's now been replaced by a GTi with DSG. .... Once a Petrol Head ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nutkins Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 I've now cancelled my order on the Black manual I was going to pick up on Saturday. The black is nice, but I really think too much is lost at the front. It seems to loose some 'GTIness' IMHO. The Red and White both look so eyecatching and sporty.

aswall Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Interesting, I always think that the nose looks best on the black. Beware of the white though, I agree that it does look quite good when clean, but maybe it would be an idea to see what happened to the BMW Mini. When it came out all the mags raved about how it was the first car for years that finally made a sensible buy in white - now a white Mini is an absolute kiss of death at trade in time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nutkins Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 The Red strip does look great without doubt, just the black grills get a little lost, less up close of course. I've had two Mini's in Dark Silver, was hunting high and low for a white one before I got the second silver. Didn't know about the residuals I have to admit, but it does look fantastic I think. Red for the GTI for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
