If it's white and the doors, bonnet and boot just turn red then it's not really worth it

Quite smart integration with the Sat Nav.... a colleague has a similar colour system in a Mondeo and I actually find it distracting at night as the contrast is all wrong.

Given the issues i've had with getting a normal Highline sorted, i think i'll stick as i am though!!!

Scott the current "white" highline displays the sat nav directions you dont need to upgrade to the colour one for this as for contrast you would hope that VW have tied in auto dimming when the lights are on :shrug:

So someone made a video of that and put music to it? It is safe to say that the last time they were in the same bed as a woman was when they were in their mommas belly.
