Looks great. Sorry to hear about your issues, I suggest taking it back to the dealer ASAP.
-
Actually I just locked my golf and they didn't come on. I'd say the going home lights are enabled when you park the car and lock it.
Because I have to go drive mine somewhere and park it to see that I'll do it tomorrow and report back. I'm pretty sure it'll be enabled.
I found out that you need auto lights because the other day my lights were set off the auto option and when I unlocked the car, I wondered why they didn't light up and it was because the dial wasn't on 'auto'.

Sorry I don't have a picture at the moment, it's too dark to take one now but I have the light sensor installed on my car. At the moment they only work for unlocking the car however when I take my car in I will ask them to enable the coming home lights. The maxidot does not have the option, I know because my golf mark 6 did have the option so I know where to look.
The only pictures I have are: http://imgur.com/a/YdkNu
On the picture of the front of my car, zoom in and look at the rear view mirror. You can just about see the sensor below it.

I will enjoy it! Hopefully I'll get some better pictures of it soon.
I must say that despite some other materials around the cabin, the steering wheel feels excellent and looks just the same! In my opinion, worth the upgrade! The stock options don't do the car justice, I added most of the options and it's definitely a nice place to be; sitting in the drivers seat.

An update.
Just got my rapid, it has the auto lights feature and has the lights come on when you unlock it. Only when it's dark out.
-
Here's the pictures: http://imgur.com/a/YdkNu
Picked it up earlier. Yes some are blurry and most are poor quality but they were took by my iPhone is a rush!
There was one that I snapped at 70 but it was a quick picture as you can see from the blurriness.

I know for a fact that the feature doesn't work on my golf when it isn't set to 'auto' lights. So I'm guessing if you don't have auto lights then you most likely don't have the ability to set this.
I bought the light sensor on my rapid that I'm picking up today, if mine has it set by default then I shall let you know.

We're picking ours up at the same time

Damn ok thanks. If they definitely do then that picture shows some very bright side lights!
-
Thanks for the offer! I'm in buckinghamshire but I managed to think of a way to get there myself.
Plan to pick it up on the 1st only if the dealer gets the plate, they're having problems with the DVLA at the moment.
-
Nice!
Correct me if I'm wrong but can these be used as DRL?

I shall take loads! I wish I could pick it up on the first but I couldn't get anyone to take me.

So I pick up my brand new rapid sport in rallye green on the 3rd of September, and I can't wait!
I bought pretty much every optional extra on it so apparently it's going to take a while to go over them.
Who would like to see some pictures when I get it back home?

How much did it cost for the lot?

Getting my Rallye green rapid with all addons in August-September! Can't wait, still wouldn't have chosen the black edition if I could.

My build week is most likely the end of July (uncomfirmed but likely) so I take it the rest of the time is to get it from the factory to the UK.
-
I'm expecting mine August-September! I'd rather the wait to have the full spec up!

Mines a sport still so no 1.4 DSG

Yes but the middle one is an optional extra.

Lovely spec mate. I'm jealous now the Sport is available in different colours. I would have probably gone for race blue.
A bit naughty of Skoda to market it as limited edition to create demand and then decide that it isn't limited edition anymore!
Oh well
Sent using my right thumb
My thoughts exactly! Although a bit of a pain for you guys who got the limited edition models I am very happy I can pick other colours. They should have changed something in the styling between the limited edition models to now what they call the "sport" spec.
In fact, I wouldn't have gone with the sport model if I couldn't change the colour. Something about having to clean it all the time just puts me off...
I only went to the dealership last week and they didn't even know you could change anything on the sport!

I'm off to take a test drive on Wednesday and looking to buy a rapid sport. I liked the look of it and the price, in the showroom, the other week. When I saw they were making them in other colours and you can add more options I thought there's nothing stopping me now.
If just like to know how long it took you guys to get your brand new rapid? I just want to see what I can expect on a turnaround considering this is also my first ever brand new car.
Especially if you bought one in the last month of so and have been given an expected delivery date.
Here's my spec I built: http://cc-cloud.skoda-auto.com/CarCard/54867072

New Rapid
in Skoda Rapid & Spaceback (2012 > )
Posted
So I had some bad luck and not even after 24 hours of owning the car I had an accident.
Lancaster Skoda in Milton Keynes were a great help and my car will soon be back to it's pristine condition!
