You wouldn't Adam an Eve it...

I was driving home last night and ended, at first beside, then right behind a perfectly matching Silver, 09 plate 2.0Tsi GT that even had the same wheels!
The driver was a girl and she doesn't clean her pipes, so mine definitely looked nicer!...

I work in the Kingston upon Thames area and I do see the odd repeat roco on my commute (there's another lady driver, white 10 plate, I see near Esher...?) but that was a real shock - that feeling of exclusivity has truley been shatterd!

We should be careful though... if we get that close again, we might end up with little rocos running around the place :clap:

The 18" Interlagos alloy wheel was/is standard on the GT spec!

Fair enough, the wheels might be the same but the pipes comment still stands.

When I picked my car up I was a little disappointed that the exhaust pipes hadn't been cleaned by the dealer - given the alloy exhaust tail pipes is a feature of the GT spec.
After gathering some tips from this very forum I've managed to clean mine up a bit, but three and a half years of exhaust particles is going to be pretty hard for a mere mortal such as myself to clean up.

Anyway, the results of my efforts are here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/nathancomben/8204998119/
