United Grey GTI (where are they?)

[MrGadget]

Hi guys, I have one of these on order and hopefully will have it in early March, the car is for my wife but I'll sneek and drive as often as I can She picked the colour but to be honest I would've picked silver. I have seen some pretty nice pics of the UG on the net but have never seen one on the road.

Just wondering what your thoughts are on this colour. Either everyone hates it therefore haven't seen any on the road or the UG is hard to get?

From pictures the UG looks pretty good and I do like how the black and red on the front grill goes with the UG.

UG is a very nice and neutral colour. Looks great in all situations I think, but won't set the world on the fire... Sounds perfect for the wife

we have one and we love the colour. i think it matches the black plastic bits quite well (i have no plan to colour code).

UG was not a "standard" car for Australia and had to order them in until i think 2008. that's why not many UG GTI on the road and i like the uniqueness.

i rather like it. its different for a GTI however it doesnt stand out like candy white or silver. i spotted one a few weeks back http://www.vwwatercooled.org.au/newf...ad.php?t=25810

overall i am so much happier with my CW GTI. then again i am biased

UG in the GTI is horn, it would have been my choice. Whilst I think the louder colours, and especially white look great, UG hides the dirt very well.

As you say the black and red accents of the GTI are a great contrast to it.

UG was first choice for my wife and second choice for me next to the White.
It took a bit of convincing, and I think it grow on her as a favorite.

I like how the UG accents the red lip stick of the GTI
