They are certainly a sweet ride, yes?

Mine is identical (colour, options, etc) and I've had it since Feb 06 ... a move I've never regretted.

Love it!

If I was going to buy a brand new one I would have picked white too. Unfortunately I'm too tight so had to put up with a second hand car in which would have been my last choice of colour!!!!!

Quick edit: Nice bit of photography that too!

Its 195/55/R15

I guess that makes it the same size rolling radius as the 205/45/R16 GTI alloys but just not as wide

Hmm i've not been able to get that effect with my wide angle lens where it looks like the car is being sucked into the camera (if that makes sense)!

Yeah its Bluewater, i'm from New Eltham.

As for the wide angle lense, just get as close to the car as possible.
