Which colour??

[kjg-kj]

I am looking to buy the new golf, and after browsing through the brochure at the colours I thought I wanted the dark blue or the dark grey.

But after seeing the cars in the flesh, I think I prefer the Georgina blue.

What colours does everyone else have/prefer?

[netherfield]

Red and it's coming tomorrow.

Deep Pearl Black....2-3 weeks time....fingers crossed:approve:

[smithysmudger]

I opted for the Georgia Blue and am more than happy with it.
I was initially thinking of the Shadow Blue but it was darker than I thought it would be when I saw it in the flesh. :approve:
What it boils down to is personnel preference.

deep pearl black!!!!! welcome to the dark side;)

[machine]

deep pearl black here too

[Griff449]

Pearl black here too........................ :)

Reflex Silver for me, never looks dirty and easy to hide marks/chips when they occur.

[dmw76]

Mines the steel grey looks good in the flesh wanted a change after having loads of black cars

[cs2009]

Just ordered Georgia blue too.

[JoseSpring]

Reflex silver here.
Looks like a good selection of colours here.
So, no-ones gone for Groovy Green or Mustard Yellow then?

[paul.mgrath]

Deep Black Pearl here as well. Don't know when tho' dealer failed on promised delivery date though - ordered 2 weeks ago.

Have to put up with good old faithful Diamond Black (mk 5 GTTDI)for the time being

All comes under the heading of drab

[vdubdavy]

It has to be Candy White:fing02:

[iallen1@btinter]

mines silver does look mint though, i saw a lime green scirroco today, wasnt keen on it

i saw a lime green scirroco today, wasnt keen on it

The dealers had 1 in the showroom when i ordered my golf, i thought it looked ok, it will certainly stand out on the road

Just about to place an order for a Golf and was wondering what peoples thoughts are of the two blacks (Non-Metallic and Deep Pearl)!?

I have seen both in the flesh at my local dealers and its hard to notice the difference from a distance.

Anyone care to share their thoughts on both colours!? I am happy to pay the extra £410 for the Deep Pearl but at the mo thinking its better spending it on an option.

Thx!

Candy white for me:

Candy white for me:



I was in Spain a couple of weeks back and noticed that the majority of new cars where I was are in White at the mo. While I was there i saw a new Golf in White with the Vancouvers and I didn't like it much.

The white looks nicer with the Bilbaos though - Looks like a good combo from the picture.

I couldnt find when i did my first search but came across this regarding the blacks :(:aargh4::

Well, I'm 51 and the missus is 48 and we both agreed that Georgia Blue was too 'old pensioner' for us! Black looks great when clean and sparkly but we've gor a black Focus at the mo and apart from showing every dink, chip and scratch, it's a bugger to keep clean. We've ordered a Steel Grey 3 door GT.

[iallen1@btinter]

ive seen all the colours in the flesh, and i went for the silverwhich looks nice, steel grey also looks good but i wasnt over keen on the black, but each to their own

Tornado Red (solid) for me. My Golf was sitting at the dealer's when I bought it, but hypothetically, if I had ordered one, it would probably have been the same colour - not sure metallic paint was worth an extra £400 to me, and trying to touch up chips etc. on my old Aluminium Silver A3 has put me off metallics as a long-term proposition!

Something else that appeals to me is that Tornado Red, I believe, is a colour with some heritage - the same shade seen on many Audi Quattros and Golf GTIs of old.

Plus, there no excuse for someone not seeing me at a junction (in daylight at least) :D

[Gilesme]

I've gone for steel grey GT, with silver as second choice (however, as a factory order, think i'm getting the SG !).

Must admit, plain Red looks good to me, however Mrs Gilesme persuaded me otherwise.
