: Black Eos 2.0 FSI Chicago Wheels Nigel Matthews 02-02-2007, 08:32 PM Took this picture in Dartmouth just after picking the car up from the showroom. Went to get an ice cream and when I came back it had drawn a croud! Very Satisfying! Nigel Andrew 02-02-2007, 10:05 PM Nigel, welcome to the site and congrats on the new car. Wish I could get free cash! Wanda 02-02-2007, 10:19 PM Looks very sharp! I love the way black looks...they are just more time consuming when it comes to cleaning. Apparently I'm getting lazy as I grow older. :D Lynne 02-03-2007, 11:45 AM Yeah, does look lovely in black and you had a nice sunny day for your photos!!! :) rabbit 02-12-2007, 09:44 AM Nice pics, gotta love those rims. Andrew 02-14-2007, 01:35 AM Does anyone know why the are called Chicago? Does this have anything to do with the U.S. city Chicago? rare 02-14-2007, 07:14 PM Does anyone know why the are called Chicago? Does this have anything to do with the U.S. city Chicago? No idea why but VW loves to name their wheels and owners often swap for different OEM ones over after market ones.

Same reason they have 'Westwood' or 'Le Mans': someone at VW thinks it sounds cool!

Love those rubber mats mmmmm. Does anyone know of a UK supplier? R Silly me. They are there in the VW accessories brochure. £26 for the front set. I ordered them from my dealer to be fitted when I take delivery. Firstly he had not heard of the rubber option and secondly he could not believe they were so cheap! He checked twice with HQ. " we just don't sell things at that price..." Shurely shome mishtake. Be seeing you R jamcar 08-20-2007, 10:11 PM Rikeos are you talking about the monster mats?? Rikeos 08-21-2007, 08:39 AM Denny They are the ones from the VW Brochure http://www.volkswagen.co.uk/accessories/details?part_no=1Q2061501041 http://www.volkswagen.co.uk/vw-assets/images/accessories/data/medium/1Q2061501041.jpg The Monster Mats have much deeper treads - for wet weather? The VW ones are Intermediates! R SoCalMan 08-21-2007, 04:15 PM Monster mats came with our Eos. Living in So. Cal, where it never snows and hardly rains, I thought it was a huge waste. However, having the cornsilk interior, I'm glad to have them...and if it ever does rain here.... jamcar 08-21-2007, 07:26 PM Thanks rikeos, They do seem to be very cheap, will have to stock up lol | |
