Hi, I think we should create a Colour Concept Register, like the Golf anniversary register. This will not be as easy as they were registered as normal GTI's, it will all be through word of mouth and what eve we can do on here. Mk3 Colour Concepts were all 2.0 8v's 115bhp Colours were Yellow, Flash Red, Jazz Blue, Salsa Green & Diamond Black There was 1000 made of each colour, some 3dr some 5dr Spec all depends on the dealer and customer, some have Air-con some don't, as some have front foglights some don't !!! Standard Spec; BBS Solitude 15" Alloy Wheels Silver Dails in the clocks Leather steering wheel with VW badge same colour of the car Heated leather recaro seats with centres same colour of the car, front seats have Colour Concept embossed in them Leather gear lever and handbrake cover again coloured same as the car Luxury carpet mats trimmed with coloured edge same as the car Electric windows (including rear windows on 5dr models) & mirrors Interior plastics are black (a,b,c pillars) Heated windscreen washer jets Colour Concept badges on rear door mouldings I am sure that there is nowhere near as many as this still in existance due to irrisponsible drivers etc etc but it would be nice to know. Please come back with your thoughts guys. I have one that will hopefully be revived very soon, ready for Bristol Volksfest on 8th, 9th & 10th of June.
mate top idea !! ive got the black one been restorin for few years now (had 2 kids) travelled every where to get gen parts defo the colour cencept should be recognised im in !!
Well there is a couple that have gone, not sure how to set it up but I am sure that we can look into something if there is enough interest.
I have noticed this http://www.yellowwheels.com/2010/08/yellow-colour-concept-golf-gti-the-car-that-launched-a-website/ but I looks like it has been abandoned.
I did,nt scrap a black one but stripped it of all the good stuff to put in my Mystic Blue Mk3 and then put all my GTi stuff back in the black one oopps sorry
Lol, that's what i was going to do with my one. As you will see I have a very good condition red 1998 but I have bought this CC for parts then decided to revive it.
that's nearly 1% of all the UK quota of black ones! Were you Buffalo Bill in a past life? -More importantly, have you got a 3 door interior going spare?
Going down, I would love to know how many are left. Done see them very often, most like mine in a bad state of repair. Will be on here soon though. Before and after photos.
I've had two..................i think!! The first was 100% a CC. Yellow 95 on an N plate. Magazine featured back in 96/97. The second was another Yellow one but this time a 2.0 Auto Convertible?! Bought it last Summer for a run around and it was great. Low mileage and a minter. Had all the usual CC spec but wasnt a GTI? Dont know if these ones count!
I have a black 3 dr and there's a woman down the road has a the same but in standard trim, also see a yellow one in westbury and I have just been informed by the wife there's a black 5dr on the other side of frome the south west must be a breeding spot for cc's!
Well I am sad to say that I will keep this going but I am back on the search for a new CC as the one I bought on the net was not as described. Looking to get rid of my 1998 in the profile pic if anyone is interested.
