Leather Seats + Colour

If I decide to get mine done I think that's what I'll do, black with red stitching and maybe even a GTi logo on them.

And as for the doorcards, get the red bit done in red leather and the rest in black

I drove 600miles round trip to take the girlfriend to look at a red gti with black leather, sat nav and only 15k on the clock, and she didn't like it!!

Then found a black one with leather and only 9k on the clock, done a 300mile trip to see it, but thank god she liked this one.

Even closer to me

Well until I move next week!

I was relatively lucky with my GTi, only had to travel to Huddersfield to get it. Spent a while waiting as I specifically wanted a red 3-door with cloth trim.

I thought silver didn't look all that as well. Until I saw it in the flesh.

Mine is silver and I prefer black, funny how the grass is always greener. The benefits of silver are that its a popular colour and that it doesn't show the dirt or swirl marks as bad as red or black. Black is also a pain to keep clean but when its polished up nice it looks mint.

I still wub my gti, just kinda jealous of the black ones

so you should be!

but...i do really like the silver ones to be fair, but love my black GTi the most as i waited out specifically for a black 3 door, despite there being a red 3 door for sale about 8 miles away.

Was it crap or was she just being picky. I'd kill for that
