    So what does a DC5 Integra look like in your rear vision mirror

      I didn't bother trying I wasn't sure if it was a type R. He had his CAI done; not sure what else.

        Isn't that the Audi A3 2.0T with Quattro?

          Got some attention today with my GTI and its LED head lamps. should turn them off, then it just looks like a regularly golf - but hey at least I know the LEDs are doing their job.

They couldn't do anything other than have a chat and do RBT but I'm sure they could have given me a hard time if they wanted to.
              Ive never seen you drive like a ****head, promise...

              These cops probably felt sorry for you, like me

                But why.. the only reason to have them is to get attention

                  My GTI, is the ultimate sleeper, no one notices at all....... only once got the thumbs up from a guy in an immaculate red mk v GTI.
                  ... don't miss the attention I used to get from the boys in blue in the VK HDT Commodore, I used to own

                    Slver has that affect.. the Golf R in silver is just so pedestrian which is why I wanted the Blue

                      My parents call silver "pensioner grey" ... Now that they are in their 70's they've rebelled and bought a red car.

                      Silver can look really good with touches of black to set it off.

                      • Don't get me wrong, Silver is one of the most popular colours our there, however because of that it tends to get lost in the flow of traffic. My current ride is Urban grey ( like the Golf United Grey) and it looks great on the Subaru but I just didn't want another silverish car

                        • I got RBT'd last night (as did the car in front of me, just a random stop. Copper asked how long I'd had the car, but that was just matter-of-factly since it still has an interim rego sticker.

                          PS: Lovin it.

                            yes it is pedestrian, especially combined with the Denvers, ,Blue is my preferred colour, unfortunately no GTIs in that colour, will have to save the pennies, for a R next time.

                              yeah, i hardly notice silver cars. Honestly i think that the golf R is such a sleeper - most people (who dont really car much for cars) I talk to think that the GTI is the sportier version of the golf than the R - probably because of the bonnet red stripes.

                              actually come to think of it, both the GTDs and Rs are sleepers - but the R would be more fun
