    I was wondering what that was like in the flesh, thought it looked a bit dark. One at vw Scarborough and its outside so rep said to drive over and have a look which I might do tomorrow.

    Atlantic Blue is pretty much navy blue and a bit dull for a flashy car IMO. Looks quite nice in a showroom with lights on it, but quite flat outside in natural light. Whilst I like grey on cars (classy colour) I’m not a huge fan of the pale flat greys that seem to be all the rage these days, but I must admit that they suit sporty cars such as the Golf GTd particularly well. White looks great when it’s clean, but a bit low rent when dirty although the worst colour to keep looking smart is black IMO. Had a few of them and they looked clean for an hour before they looked filthy again! Never again! All a personal choice though. It’s a shame that VW has such a poor colour choice though, as do almost all German manufacturers. Germans make the best cars but don’t seem to want people to have colour in their lives!
