i'm not sure dark blue works on a mk1, looks to 'modded'
the platinum grey is nice though. similar to the car in golf+ this month and 'carbs4ever' car.

I quite like Atlas grey (LP7V) as seen on mk2's. Quite a nice dark grey but when the light hits it, it really shines due to being metallic.
Out of those I would go for platinum grey.

Tottally agree, my mk2 is atlas grey, platinum would be top colour for a mk1 if you are keeping an original look, other colours like the blues are more of a modifing lookovermind said

Platinum Grey……..helios blue looks good on a mk1, but brighter blues don't suit them

Hmm… tempting, but orange only seems to work on Lambos… can you make a Mk1 look like that? :notworthy:

I don't think modern popular colours like silver and graphite suit the Mk1.
