RedRobin Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 ....Saw one yesterday travelling in opps direction. Deffo a Mk4 R32 and looked superb in white. Quite rare I should think....Please don't tell me I was imagining things! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRobin Posted June 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 While still on the subject of '.:Rs spotted', the other week I saw not one but two DPB Mk4s in the Forest Of Dean, about 10 miles apart and both driven by ladies . Why aren't they TSN members ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markallain Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 None came in white from the factory. So if it was an R it must have been painted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRobin Posted June 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 ....That's what I thought. I got a long look (A303) and the front was deffo Mk4 and badged .:R. Also, I consciously checked it wasn't silver with high reflections looking white. Perhaps it was an imitation .:R body kit but I don't think so.

Mook Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 There are a lot of Mk4 Golf GTIs now with R32 body kits - if you check ukmkivs.net there are a lot of people who've done this. Adding the R32 body kit to a standard Mk4 GTI does make it go faster as well.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mook Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 Depends which flavour as well Robin. 2 litre, 1.8 Turbo. Too many choices Glad to see GTI owners can take the p*ss out of other GTI owners, though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very sad if you can't laugh at yourself sometimes . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan32 Posted June 18, 2006 Report Share Posted June 18, 2006 As far as I am aware, there is only 1 white MKIV R in ze vorld and that is based in the US of States and has an EIP turbo on it with circa 500bhp. Think it got featured in a US publication called Eurotuner. There's some talk about it on Vortex. Its also sporting white powder coated 19" Chs. I'll dig out a link if i can....
