Hi All, So I got a new 4.5 Estate VRS with just the Velvet Red paint, however I was expecting it to have the horned rear headrests for rear passangers to sleep better (stops neck ache) and the eletric parcel shelf which are standard on EU and UK broucher even mentions it as standard equipment. This isnt the case we get poor head rests with no support and bog standard parcel shelf. So buyers be aware we don't get as good as EU brothers get. Smoe

Correct they have supply issues with the paint! Which seems a little hard to believe. So I have cancelled the order as the risk for me is that it would get delayed even further and I would run into the new tax year and have to pay double road tax with the new laws coming into force. Smoe

So, News on my VRS build is that it is delayed till February 2025 at the earliest. Have a guess why? It was ordered back in August and had one extra added the Royal Green Metallic paint, nothing else. Smoe

Hi All This is a question for UK buyers of the 4.5 vrs estate. I was very concerned about not suffering the increased VED payment of £600 (£190 if below) if your car exceeds the 40k list price (£39775 plus £390 for paint). My dealer said that adding one of the exclusive paints to the price would not push me over the limit as you take the registration and delivery off the list price meaning that it would not exceed the 40k threshold. Has anybody else been told this or are they pulling a fast one on me, and after a year I am going to be faced with paying £600 per year? Cheers PS still no build date

Hi All, Ordered vRS back in August but still havent heard a thing about a build date? Is it normal to hear nothing for 2 months? The only extra I added was the royal green paint as DCC would have taken us over the 40k tax bracket in the UK and I was not willing to pay that. Any feedback greatly appreciated. Cheers Smoe
