There are some proper tards in this thread. Drive both, decide what you like, buy one. Nobody really cares which is faster.

Starting to remember why I said I wouldn't own a black car again. Looks epic for about 5 minutes after I've cleaned it, then it looks crap. Im also not sure if the brake pads are OEM but the dust they give off is unreal. I've got a few launch control videos which I will put up when I can be...

Yeah I'm really struggling on the wheel choice. They look crap to me. Are they light? Epic car though.

That ST looks mega. Love it.

At the minute 18 if I'm lucky.

Where did you get the wheels from mate?

I knew before I bought it what I was in for fuel wise. For day to day use I never go near a Motorway or anything resembling an A road, so it is all town driving, allbeit traffic free. Normal driving with the odd blip here and there and I get around 22mpg. If I'm extra carefull I can see 25mpg...

Love it mate, like seriously love it. Done almost 700 miles im 3 weeks, and I haven't even been using it for work yet. Does everything you could ever ask for, still suprises me how easy it will pull into double figures. Private plate has gone, but I've got my eye on 'V666 RDH' when I get back...

That 182 owns all tbh.

I'm colour blind (as in I struggle with different shades of each colour), and you car is a complete mind f*ck to me.

I like these, although they look a little dated now. My dad has just bought a brand new X5 4.0D. It 'feels' as quick as mine ffs! Some machine.

I'm not a fan. Red needs to be a deep finish with plenty of gloss! To me it looks like a car that has never been looked after and the colour has faded. Might look better in natural light.

I just don't see the point. The R32 on Continental GT wheels nice, but only because it still looks vaguely OEM. The rest just look abit stupid.

Im also in the camp of failing to see how it is good/cool. Not a massive a fan of MX5s, even less so when they look ready for the scrap heap.

I am but the forum annoys me on my phone so I don't use it too often. The silver bits will be going black when i have time to get things done.

Still the best car on here, by a long long way. Fire me a PM if you do ever genuinely decide to sell ;)

It has somehow ended up on VW R32 owners on Facebook. untitled by Arctic_182, on Flickr

It has grown on me alot! Somebody down the road from me has a black R32 aswell, and imo mine looks better from the front. Still not sold on the silver bits but it isn't a priority at the minute I'm too busy.

Got a few crap pictures on the way home, stupid busy with work at the minute so not had chance to even clean it properly never mind take some decent photos. Managed to give it a quick jet wash and wipe down as it was disgustingly dirty. Still puts a massive grin on my face every time I drive it...

Not my thing at all. The interior colour is vile. You'd have to be insanse to by that over an R32 imo.

Storm Grey is a shocking colour.

That is stunning. Epic colour.

That looks f*cking awesome!

Not suprised, it was positively pauper spec ;)

Cheers lads! I really am blown away by it!

I'm certain they are reps but like you say, the offset on them is perfect. 98% of people won't even tell the difference, and you can pick a proper set up for around 3/400 so it is no big deal really!

Picked the car up on Thursday, and all I can say is wow. What an incredible machine. No proper pictures yet, I can't stop driving the thing. Gave it a quick polish yesterday before I went out. phone 155 by Arctic_182, on Flickr

I despise virgins so much.

I don't see what relevance the prices of his stock list have to do with my car? I've been looking for a long time, and this was more than realistically priced.

Excellent reason to change wheels. :rolleyes: On the other hand, the car looks properly clean. Only let down by the awful wheels and shocking ebay sidelights. Does it have xenons? If it does then it would look much better with no sidelights in.
