Pick the car up on Sat, alloys need total refurb badly curved, car is a black a-line special edition convertable

I'm thinking dark silver or grey?

They are the twin spoke blade alloys 18"

Personally i'd go with high polish silver, nice contrast against the balack, unless you're going for full stealth mode and then i'd go anthracite.

Yea I hear ya ....... Was thinking of a shade or 3 darker I know what you mean about silver as it goes with the s-line chrome bits?
 
Think I may go for that then looks a tiny bit more stealthy too lol

Reckon it adds at least 20bhp
 
you got the extra 20 ponys as its a special edition
 
LOL i wish mate .......

Still don't know what that is or what is extra?
Bizarre
 
no the special ed has 220 bhp
normal 2.0T 200 bhp
 
its a special edition as its the last run of the B7 cabbys

so it has quite alot of goodies as standard

one thing i have never got with the cabs and iv owned 5 from 2003/2008

the seats are B6 sports seats they never put the newer B7 shape seats in them.
 
Are you serious?

Or winding me up lol

Power really 220?

I can't see any extras over the normal ones only different alloys and Bose?

I also can't find any performance figures what so ever for this car.

has to be around the 7 sec mark?

here's what I've had done recently. Mine is a special edition saloon but this should give you an idea on how it'll look. I'm happy with it. IMAG0157 1IMAG0071 1IMAG0163 1
 
Cheers mate. Yeah it's an anthracite finish. Done by a place in Birmingham.
 
If you do decide on an anthracite finish I'd probably wrap the aluminium trim on your hood too to match the grill and wheels. That's just me though. Good choice on the car btw, the final edition cabs look good :)
 
Thanks bro, think I'll keep the chrome maybe gonna shade lighter perhaps as quite like the chrome (like the moody look too)
Maybe a half way house between yours and standard?
 
This is mine at the mo. Even though my wheels are diamond cut polished I'm still gonna get the chrome wrapped gloss black. The grill is a genuine black optics and I think it looks stunning
