    A tartan to match your car

    According to this, Volkswagen is going to sell a tartan fabric in the Golf MKVI GTI tartan that matches the interior of one its cars! The author even suggests that one might wish to fashion a kilt out of it. (Your mileage may vary)

    Best regards,

    I'm thinking of switching to Roman skirt armor, so I was more interested in the leather seats...

    This would be far cooler if they'd do it in reverse - match the tartan in your car to the tartan of your kilt.

    If you wore a kilt + vest made out of the tartan, you'd turn invisible when you sat down....
