Black Scout ?

Featured Replies

Hi Guys

, Thinking of trading in my Octy 4x4 for a new Scout. Can you answer a few questions for me

1 is Black a good colour to have (I have Biege at the moment)

2 would silver rails look good on Black

3 and can any body recommend the Columbus Sat Nav System

Feedback appreciated - Thanks

black would probably look nice but the only thing I've found with a black car is that all marks show up alot on it. I've seen a few A4's that are black with silver and they look ok but not seen the Octi.

I thought about black, but ordered Anthracite in the end.

Pick it up this week so cant really tell you if I made a good choice until I get it.

I guess silver RR's may look a bit weird since there is no silver detailing round the windows etc. to balance it against. I stuck to black RR's.

Had a black mk1 which looked great , but it had black mouldings .

Problem with the Scout is the fact that it has such a vast area of grey plastic moulding ( great protection though ) which IMHO does not sit well with jet black .

However the anthracite really looks far more coordinated .... ( I sound like an old woman ) ..... do not answer .

is Black a good colour to have
No!
would silver rails look good on Black
No!
can any body recommend the Columbus Sat Nav System
Yes!

ive had mine since feb and it takes alot of cleaning but it does look nice in black:thumbup:

Yes, Yes, No (Columbus is expensive and theft risk is enormous on the continent).

Have you thought about white?

I saw a white facelift Scout in Prague a few weeks ago, looked really good and white is a "no cost option" too.

That should look nice :thumbup:

I have decided on Rosso Red
Nice! I really wanted red, but the deal on Storm Blue was just too good to miss....

The only visible optional extra would be the Onyx Alcantara / Leather.

I'm very, very pleased with it.

Just ordered Anthracite and now I've seen the pictures I can't wait. The Alcantara is a very expensive option but looks fantastic.

As for roof rails, I think black every time, and nearly didn't order my allroad in Lava Grey because they no longer do black roof rails for MY09 Audis. Still looks a bit hearse-like with the bling, but I'll let my wife take that while I stick with the Scout.
