    May not be that different to the R in the end though - while persisting with the quad pipes the diffuser look is a lot stronger. If it wasn't an RS3 rip I'd actually prefer single 'wheelbarrow' ovals each side..

    Likely the first of the dropped Mk8s, from Nullbar. I believe it ran a bit of a 'Frankenstein' set up with FAHRWairk, KW dampers and Air Lift controls. Of more interest is the sweet OZ Superturismo in the Evoluzione finish (red 'centrelock' finish) in 20 x 8.5 ET45.

    Another Nullbar based car - these are MB Design wheels, I believe a variation of the VR3.2 (itself a 2 piece version of the VR3) with a custom MB centrelock style cap:

    Attention VWOz - this doesn't count as a new colour offering on the Mk8 if it's on the cards.

    Sparco Assetto Gara and KW V3:

    Wagon Wednesday Mk8 style - admittedly on a sad looking set of small stock wheels. Unfortunately the search for practicality, aka space, has resulted in a more challenging looking design for Mk8, akin to the Mk7 days, unlike the relatively attractive Mk7 effort.

    I suspect in a better spec, lower ride and different colour it will still be a decent looking thing.
