First view of our new car at Rainworth Skoda

Dave I must say the Tangerine is growing on me. Looks very good.

yup, i reckon that colour looks ace

Since my thread from yesterday's pick up will disappear over time I should also post some pictures to the official pictures thread. This thread has helped me a LOT to decide on colour - especially when I changed my order from Aqua Blue to Steel Grey. So here is my new steed, a Steel Grey Snow Monster (with mudflaps and a stubby aerial):

On the Ridgeroad above Godstone:

At a local café in Godstone:

On a minor road crossing the M25 near Godstone:

In London:

The Onyx interior (with additional ashtray for odds and sods - electric seat, Frank the reversable Yeti in the door and a hole in the roof!)

I see you are off-roading already!

hehehe Indeed. I SOOO wanted to just make the car muddy and all snow monsterlike, but hey ho, he is new and I wanted him new looking for a few days still! The mud did mess up the inside of the wheelarches though.

Alas I had to in order to get to the Council in time to get the parking permit! I sat for 2 hours at the dealer's waiting for the car to be put back together again. Grrr.

Glad you got it all sorted. I really like the steel grey colour, if I get another Yeti that will be the colour of choice.

Wow, Johannnniner, you must have the first 2012 model Yeti - it's all bendy and goes round corners.....and that domed sunroof is summat else!!!! (here imagine a string of inappropriate emoticons, smilies, and other Tongue in cheek fings - the iPad don't do them!)

Real Snow Monster!

Here is my Snow monster with Pat.

Here it is outside Allams

Here it is outside home with the VWoda hub caps

It really does look the business with the black wheels.

More to follow when I can take some in daylight.

Mike

Mike I really like the hub caps. AND the black wheels with the white car looks much better than the black ones on my steel grey. Lovely beast Mike!!!

Thanks Johann

Why are there stickers on the rear bumper trim? It looks like tape still holding it down? Did James forget to fix it yesterday?!

The trim has to be held in place for minimum of 24 hours, so it can come off tomorrow.

Well, i don't know what all the fuss is about ??

6 inches of snow on the roads. stay at home and don't drive unless you absolutely have to!!!

well i had to.

to take this pic of Harry playing in the snow.

we both had a ball.

we were the only ones to drive down this road all day. the other tracks are where i drove so i could walk without getting snow in my shoes.

Harry, on the other hand, had no problems at all, even on summer tyres.

thanx Harry.

Theres a yeti under here somewhere

All this snow in the midlands the weather has gone mad
