| Car Trivia: |
Lee’s car was the overall winner of the AOC Top 15 Cars
competition at PVS 2008, and so automatically won Car of the

The Linea Rossa was a special edition of the MK4 made in
only cabriolet or coupe. It was available in a choice of two
colours either Red or Silver Lightning. All came with full
red and black leather interior. |
