    Then the car got wrapped and looked a bit more scene familiar:

    At the risk of dredging up the worst Mk7 segment invented (caught by the Tigs), Tuesday towbar:

    Kudos to the VW engineers getting in early for lowered/OZ Wagon Wednesday.

    All these lowered cars look awful imo. I can’t stand the look of the top of the wheels being covered. It’s deformed & impractical.

    I’m also very fussy with wheels & tend to think VW do a great job with their selections (GTI/R).

    It is definitely not to everyone's tastes.

    Keep in mind most of these are on air rather than static, so practicality is not compromised - and a lot are only sitting this low for show/pics.

    With all the Mk8 delays viz electric gremlins and pandemics very few people have actually modified the new cars thus far. IMO the Mk8 has continued VW's trend of OEM wheel design getting worse and worse.. if I jump to a Mk8 one day I will almost certainly be carrying my OZ over.
