Timski Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 Choosing the colour is the hardest bit. The R just looks ace in all colours (as does the GTI). Every time I 'decide' on a colour, I come home to find someone's posted pics of a different colour and I end up changing my mind. As I'm typing this I'm looking at that Shadow Blue one - it looks the gonads and it's not even on my shortlist! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poobarr Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 I fiddle'nd on about this myself for ages. The DBP looks really good in the rain and winter but not so good in the sun. Silver is too common. S/Blue doesn't suit it to my mind and black is becoming the new silver (i've seen soooo many 06/07 poo motors in black). Grey is good normally, but the VW steel grey is very drab. I wanted white, WHY cant we get it in white?!!! Got black in the end, boring but no regrets. best of luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vagabond Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 DBP doesn't look good in the sun? scroll up and look at hixters. IT IS THE BEST EXAMPLE OF THE MKV i've seen....EVER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snoopy Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 DBP is my fav at the moment very close followed by shadow blue. I have a shadow blue GTI and its amazing how many people on the road don't see it coming and pull out. Dark colours are a real pain for this. Were as theres a deep blue pearl R32 3 door near me and it beams as it comes towards you. You cannot really miss it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan32 Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 DBP is my favourite but its not as limited as we all think. There are some VAG cars available in this colour, but on the whole, its rarer than black. Black suits the MKV really well, especially in 3dr, as it disguises the MKVs bulk, especially from side on, and the chrome grill actually works on the black, but it seems everyone is getting black, and its probably a pig to keep clean and prevent scratches/swirling. Hixsters looks awesome in the flesh as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oli Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 Yup, I see more black MKV's than any other colour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrakeSnake Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 A black one 'lives' down the road from me, but other than that one, i've seen 4 other DBP's in my city alone...? Now red... that's a rare one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soulboy Posted April 12, 2007 Report Share Posted April 12, 2007 Someone (with a bit more time than me at the moment), should stick a poll up for the colour of TSN R32s. It was done a few years back - pre mk5 - so it would be good to do a new one. Any takers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dee333 Posted April 12, 2007 Report Share Posted April 12, 2007 Blue all the way - Black's good to but a little to understated for my liking.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
