Mk 7 Golf GTD - what colour/spec?
Discussion
About to order a new GTD, have tested a DSG and love it, but I need to order my exact combo or colour, gearbox and options.
What's advice would you give me about the best choice of colour and spec in terms of reliability and resale value?
The other option is a GTI, but I'm 99% sold on the diesel due to the mileage I drive,

My favourite combo at the moment is grey, three door, 19's, discover pro. Brilliant cars. I see Golfs all day every day, and I have never been as impressed with a model as I am the MK7. The technology in the engine is cutting edge. You won't get 50+ mpg because they are so bloody good to drive. If I could justify it, I would have one, but I do low mileage and would probably go for the same spec GTI with the diff, which is addictive!
Definitely 5dr DSG with Nav. Colour is a personal choice but I think Red or White suits them. Black and Grey a bit bland. Also stick with Cloth seats and 18" alloys.
You shouldn't have any problems selling on as GTDs are super desirable and the DSG cars hold their premium.
I'm hoping I might be able to afford one sometime next year as an upgrade from my Mk6.

White is dreadful and cheap looking should remain in the 80's.
Black looks good but awful for dirt and scratches.
Red or the dark silver would be my choice.
Not keen on the light metallic blue either but all other colours are ok.
In my opinion of course.
I really cannot see the appeal of white but seems really common(er popular!).

Absolutely agree, whether it's a boggo 1.4tsi (sweet spot?), GTD, GTi or R, all fantastic.OP, I'm a dyed in the wool manual man but I would 100% go for DSG on one of these.
