Welcome aboard - neat car!  :happy2:
Question: do you know the specs/version of the wheels you've got on your car? I supposedly have the reps that look identical (including the black inserts) but not sure of the ET and other specs of this variant. Are these the Monza or the Monza II?

hmmmmm not too sure buddy! They are classed as monza shadows 18" hwoever with regard to the monza or monza II, i am unsure.. sorry. You got a pic of your reps? I think the reps will weigh alot more and wont be as strong as the proper ones even if they do look the same. get some pics up buddy! I know the monzas on mine are different to the monzas that come with the mk5. TBH i prefer the mk5 have a more sharpened edge i feel

Do R-Tech do the TSI yet?

Lovely mk6 mate, so clean in black. A few years ago the mk6 didn't do it for me, but I love them now, and this is a nice example.

Thanks man! Somedays i love it some days i want a mk7 R  :signLOL:   if only money grew on trees!  I think the shape of the MK6 is very rounded. I think the mk5 stands out more as a gti though and looks sportier!

It's always the way! Get a quick car, want a faster car, get the faster car, want an even faster car... etc. We'd never stop if money was no object!

Stick with the mk6 mate, it's just as sporty looking as the mk5 to me. I actually find the mk7 R a little bland visually, and I see so many on the road (majority leased). Mk5/6/7 GTIs though seem much less common round my way.

its greed haha! i had a 1.4 no turbo before this. This was a beautiful step up and you just want more more more!!!

Round my way (Newcastle) all you see is mk7 Rs and GTD's. I have only ever seen throughout the country in flesh a handful or mk6 gtis even the mk5's...  Mk7s GTIs are rare up here too. such a shame about the mk7 r early lease deals. means the market will be flooded soon!

Yep, loaadddds of GTDs too. And you can just tell when you drive past and they don't give your car even the slightest glance that there isn't an enthusiast behind the wheel.
