Pics of Yellow VRS (first UK one on here?) ...

stevesVRS · 14-08-2006, 22:59

Hi folks,

Been browsing the forum for a couple of months now whilst waiting for my car to arrive ... finally, this morning, my Sprint Yellow Octy VRS

was delivered ... 2007 spec (red calipers, tinted mirror glass, MP3 stream etc.)

Makefish · 14-08-2006, 23:10

Very nice and congrats for he first UK spec Sprint Yellow OctyII vRS

Loz · 14-08-2006, 23:17

I love it! It's like a big banana!!!

andy2407 · 14-08-2006, 23:28

Looks great in yellow. I want one!
Not convinced about the red calipers though.

Harry_vRS · 14-08-2006, 23:45

Looks awesome.

Agree about the red calipers tho, looks odd against the yellow.

Tom_vRS · 14-08-2006, 23:55

I love it, looks amazing.... but why no 18s... then it would be perfect imho.

But nice car fella, VERY nice.

RobClubley · 15-08-2006, 00:09

Ooooh, yes I like that a lot!

vRSLen · 15-08-2006, 01:52

looks very nice but my next one will be race blue or black

skodalaura · 15-08-2006, 05:22

hot material u got there.

MisterGT · 15-08-2006, 08:15

Stunning

mumphie · 15-08-2006, 08:37

It's very yellow!

lozgti · 15-08-2006, 08:43

Nice.Very nice.

Can you just choose red calipers then? Thought green was the trademark of the vRS?

**VRStu** · 15-08-2006, 08:54

Skoda seem to have opted for Red Calipers now I'm afraid. Saw my new one on Saturday waiting at the dealership for me and it has red ones too.

I can only assume it's a cost saver as they can come out of the VW parts bin.

It's a real shame as these were a vRS trademark.

dan123 · 15-08-2006, 10:21

Very, very nice.....but green calipers were the Skoda trademark, it's almost like the parent company is punishing Skoda for the brand image it has made for itself.

Ants · 15-08-2006, 10:32

Nice car! We had a yellow Estate about 5 weeks ago

(http://www.briskoda.net/forums/gener...ghlight=sprint),

but that's the first hatch I've seen!

I think green calipers would have looked a bit too much on a yellow car!

**VRStu** · 15-08-2006, 11:00

I gotta say it's not to my taste but then if we all liked the same things it'd be boring wouldn't it.

I'm sure you'll love the car and I really can't wait to get mine.

octaviarsman · 15-08-2006, 12:01

Thats a very yellow car

Getting used to seeing yellow on the roads as most seat leons i see are yellow.....slowly getting used to it!

i used to say i would never have a yellow car, but im slowly warming

They wont be able to say they didnt see you coming!

Nice car buddy

damoh2k1 · 15-08-2006, 12:10

Absolutely love it!

Now... Wheres the phone number for HSBC?

VRS_RICHIE · 15-08-2006, 13:01

That colour is not as bad as i thought

Quetz VRS · 15-08-2006, 14:54

Not a yellow fan, but it seems to work on the Octy

I may also be warming to a yellow Fab VRS now.... we will see

Nice ride though

mumphie · 15-08-2006, 16:29

It would look sweet with bigger dark (anthracite) alloys. The Leon Cupra R in yellow is one of the few cars that can carry it off well.

Shifty · 15-08-2006, 16:41

That looks great mate

The red calipers look good with the yellow imho

mdk1 · 15-08-2006, 19:45

Does look very nice.

Johnwg · 15-08-2006, 19:47

Yellow does suit the Octy II VRS I must say... looks stunning
